I do wish more beaches were available. it would be nice if info was provided indicating if the road was open to reach a beach in the north past Hanalei.
Huge time saver. A must for visitors, both in pointing out beaches that are out of the way and reporting their conditions.
I've just started using it. Well know more later. So far it's helped no ware to go for a great time at the beach
This is awesome! It helps me so much and I am on my vacation at Kauai! It updates daily too.!
very helpful and informative
Yes I use it alot when I visit my sister on Kauai.
This app was helpful for my wife and I for snorkeling. It provides us with information about various beaches and conditions
Good for some basic insights into the local beaches and for ocean info. Not as good for weather
The beach descriptions were good but the surf conditions were always several days out of date and therefore completely useless for deciding which beach to go to. Who wants to go to a beach to snorkel and then find out that the conditions there are too rough? For current conditions it is better to go to an app like Surfline.
Very useful after recent floods for brown water alerts. Always good for info on which beaches have lifeguards with filters for swim, boat, or snorkle interest.
Causes screen to freeze on Android. Only way to shut it down is to restart phone.
Reports are consistently several days out of date. This ap is completely worthless.
Handy app. Doesn't update as often as would be helpful.
Highly recommend this app to help plan your activities while visiting Kauai. Seemed mostly on point. Be mindful that weather can change quickly here on Kauai, and consulting the ocean reports and weather can help you decide which activities and areas might be most ideal for a particular day. Very well done app!
I used this app everyday while in Kauai to check surf and look up beaches that I hadn't been to. Very useful .
I have used this on several trips to Kauai...love it so much I always tell the person on the plane next to me download it!
Not always upto date with beach reports often from the day before. Otherwise a helpful site.
Good info, however, not all the beaches were displayed at all times.
I love that I can access the weather and ocean report along with the map. I use this app everyday
Loved the water/surf reports and it had a lot of great info
Like to see more in depth weather reports
Good app to lookup all the beaches and weather report
A must have love it
Extremely informative app. Helpful for tourists. I really like the Ocean report and the weather report.
Really awesome application .. It took us everywhere we want to go with ease. Highly recommended
DON'T USE!!! Barely functions, it is February 8th as I write this and the last update on the beaches was January 29th and that's pathetic given how dangerous the swells can be during winter. You click on the weather tab and nothing at all comes up, hit refresh and you get the "success" but there is nothing. Weather tab doesn't work, ocean report doesn't work, and the beach browsing is terrible since the swell report is awful.
