Golf in Hanamaulu

Hanamaulu is a small community on the eastern coast of Kauai near Lihue, the island's commercial and governmental center, where Wailua Golf Course occupies the flat coastal terrain just north of the Wailua River mouth. The course's east-coast position and the flatness of the land between the Wailua River and the Kealia coastline provide the setting for one of the most celebrated municipal golf facilities in the United States—a course that has served Kauai residents at accessible pricing for decades while receiving national recognition for its quality. Hanamaulu's proximity to Lihue and the Lihue Airport makes Wailua Golf Course particularly accessible to visitors arriving on the island.
