Russian Fort Elizabeth State Historical Park, Waimea

Recently built memorial to King of Kauai, which was very nice. Area still looks like it’s under construction. However, there are restrooms available, but not that clean or well maintained. The memorial site is a quick 5 minute stop to read and take few pics, but we stayed a bit longer to view the sunset which was stunning as it is from anywhere on Kauai.

Neat place, it still needs some work, but was very interesting and informative and yes, worth a trip if you’re on this side of the island. The fort is located right next to where Captain Cook first landed in Hawaii. There’s lots of parking and a bathroom available on site. It truly takes just a few minutes and is well worth the stop.
