Description

Once the village where Kauai's last king, Kaumualii, had his home, Kamokila Village allows you to experience life in an ancient Hawaiian settlement. Besides the carefully preserved remains of the village, a number of thatched huts have been carefully recreated to provide an accurate look at life in pre-contact Hawaii. Demonstrations of ancient Hawaiian arts, crafts, and games bring the past alive. Several films have been shot nearby, probably due to the lush tropical setting.
