Reusable Water Bottles

Kaua'i water is great – no need to buy cases of plastic bottled water!

Number 2

Reef-Safe Sunscreen

Sunscreens containing oxybenzone and octinoxate damage
our fragile reefs.

Number 3

Binoculars

View seals and turtles from afar so they can get the important rest they need while on the beach.

Old Cloth Grocery Bags & Garden Gloves

Pick a day to do a solo/family beach cleanup during your stay. Help us continue to remove up to 5,000 lbs. of marine debris from Kauai beaches every month! Send your family cleanup pics to campaigns@kauai.surfrider.org

Reusable Travel Utensils

Just say no
to plastic takeout utensils and straws!

They make great carry-ons and eliminate buying throw-away styrofoam coolers!
