Kokee Natural History Museum

Koke’e Natural History Museum is a little museum with heart open 365 days a year. Koke’e Museum provides interpretive programs and exhibitions about Kaua’i’ s ecology, geology and climatology.

Kokee’s Museum also provides basic information on trail conditions in Waimea Canyon and Koke’e State Parks.

Kokee Natural History Museum, at a crisp 4,000 feet, has displays on plants and animals. The staff can advise you on the park’s many seasonal activities.

Behind the museum is a quick nature trail with 35 marked plants; a brochure is available at the museum. Next door, Kokee Lodge has a warm hearth and serves breakfast and lunch.

Drive up Highway 552 further and find two grand overlooks that have views of the Na Pali Coast: the Kalalau Valley Overlook and Puu O Kila Lookout. The lofty perches, in a rainforest habitat, are in the clouds.
