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.

The dramatic natural splendor of Kaua'i's mountain landscapes nourishes and refreshes all of us who live here. The splendid upland Waimea Canyon and Koke'e parks attract nearly every visitor who ventures to our Island shores. Waimea Canyon, the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" as Mark Twain once described it, is an impressive canyon over 2700 feet deep cut in the heart of the small Kaua'i island.

The rivers that run through it cascade over many glorious waterfalls that gleam and glisten on sunny days after heavy rains. The main attractions of Koke'e State park are the native vegetation, native forest birds, and the scenic cliffside views.

Koke'e Museum is the only museum in the State of Hawai'i open every day of the year at no charge, greeting 100,000+ visitors annually, rain or shine!

 

Koke'e Museum pioneered "eco-tourism" long before the word existed. From guided summer "WonderWalks"to interpretive training programs for volunteers and staff, Koke'e Museum offers responsible, accurate visitor information in fresh innovative ways
