Kauai's Recovery Unfolds as Island Spirit Shines Through the Storm
The wind has moved on, but Kauai is still catching its breath. Hurricane Lowell swept through earlier this week, leaving behind flooding, powerful waves, and a landscape that now hums with the sound of generators rather than ocean breeze. Thousands remain without power as of Thursday, yet the cleanup crews are out in force, and the island's spirit refuses to dim. There's something quietly inspiring about watching a community rally after nature's punch, no drama, just steady hands and shared aloha. This is the Kauai we love: resilient, grounded, and deeply connected to the land. For those dreaming of island escapes, our guide to Kauai's golf scene captures that same authentic adventure, from tee to tide.

Kauaʻi & Hawaiʻi Island ʻOhana: Rebuilding After Hurricane Lowell
Hurricane Lowell hit hard, but Hawaiʻi's spirit is tougher. Fierce winds and dangerous surf slammed Kauaʻi and Niʻihau Monday night, leaving homes, businesses, and roads damaged across the islands. By Tuesday morning, the storm had moved on, but the real work was just beginning. Power outages linger, and flooding is a real concern. This is when community matters most. We're watching the recovery unfold, and it's a reminder of the resilience that defines this place. For the latest on what residents and visitors need to know, our piece "Kauaʻi Recovery Update: What Residents and Visitors Should Know" has you covered. Stay safe, and let's support each other as we rebuild.

Honoring Ancient Ways: Six New Pwo Navigators Join the Tradition
The sacred echoes of the Pwo ceremony carry a profound weight. On July 30, 2026, in Niu Valley on Oʻahu, the Polynesian Voyaging Society welcomed six Hawaiʻi captains and navigators into the revered ranks of Pwo Navigators. This title, among the highest honors within the Weriyaeng School of Navigation, is a deep commitment to ancestral knowledge. The induction, led by master navigators from Satawal, Micronesia, connects our islands to a vast Pacific heritage. It is a vibrant, living tradition, and we are inspired by their dedication.
