Your Kauai Honeymoon: 5 Moments You'll Never Forget

You just got married. Now it's time to exhale.

Kauai is made for that in-between feeling — the giddy, unhurried bliss of being newlyweds with nowhere to be. Dramatic coastlines, golden-hour everything and enough privacy to feel like you have the island to yourselves. Here are five ways to make your honeymoon unforgettable at and around OUTRIGGER Kaua'i Beach Resort & Spa.

1. Paddle to a hidden waterfall together

Kayak up the scenic Wailua River, then hike hand-in-hand through lush rainforest to Secret Falls — a 100-foot cascade hidden deep in the jungle. The journey is as romantic as the destination: quiet stretches of river, verdant greenery, and the reward of a private swim beneath the falls. It's adventure and intimacy wrapped into one perfect half-day.

2. Celebrate over a romantic dinner at Naupaka Terrace

The resort's signature restaurant is made for evenings like this. Naupaka Terrace serves island-inspired cuisine crafted from locally sourced ingredients, with indoor and oceanside garden seating. As the sky darkens and the live music drifts in, it's easy to linger over a second glass of wine. This is the honeymoon dinner you'll remember.

3. Share a Lomi Lomi massage in the spa's beachside bungalow

Hawaiian Rainforest Spa offers side-by-side Lomi Lomi massages in a bungalow, steps from the ocean. The traditional Hawaiian technique features long, flowing strokes that melt tension and restore balance — all while you listen to the waves. It's the kind of experience that feels designed for honeymooners.

4. Learn hula or ukulele side by side

There's something sweetly romantic about trying something new together — and inevitably laughing through the learning curve. The resort's complimentary hula and 'ukulele classes are lighthearted, fun, and taught by local practitioners who make everyone feel welcome. No talent required, just a willingness to play.

5. Capture golden-hour photos on Nukolii Beach

The two-mile stretch of sand directly in front of the resort is typically uncrowded — perfect for a sunset stroll (or an impromptu photo shoot).
