This irresistible wo-
men's boutique is chock-full of feminine gear made for those who've outgrown the teen-
age surfer-chick look. The drapey sweaters, platform sandals and kimono-fabric ac-
cessories aren't haute couture, but they're affordable and unique. Also find vintage cloth-
ing and retro home decor.
Getting There & Away
Don't look for a town center. Most attractions are scattered along Kuhio Hwy (Hwy 56)
or along Kuamoʻo Rd (Hwy 580), which leads
mauka
(inland). To get to Kapaʻa or bey-
ond, take the Kapaʻa Bypass Rd, which runs from Coconut Plantation to north Kapaʻa.

TOP OF CHAPTER
Waipouli
Sandwiched between Wailua and Kapaʻa, Waipouli is less a town than a cluster of res-
taurants, grocers, a drugstore and other basic businesses. You're likely to stop here to
stock up.
