Hi there, hoping someone can give me a starting point for planning my trip to Kauai.
I've been to Maui and the Big Island and loved both of them, Kauai is next on the list. I'll be going with my non-diving wife and 4 year old son in August, diving is not the primary focus of the trip but I plan to schedule 3 2-tank morning dives while I'm there. I understand most of the diving is done on the south east end of the island. Since diving is not the focus, where would be an ideal place to stay on Kauai (North? South?). We'll be there for 2 weeks and will have a car. I'd prefer to have early dives so I can be back with the fam later in the morning or by noon. I'm not picky on the dive sites, I just want to be in the water and have relative easy access to a dive shop/boat launch (10-15 minute drive).
I'd like to stay in the South (better/more diving?) but wife thinks the North might be better for non-diving activities.
Looking for any suggestions for people who've balanced diving / non-diving activities.
Thanks
