Another Kauai highlight for me was golfing for $9/day! One of the golf courses (Kukuiolono Park) was owned by a plantation farmer who donated all of the land on his death, so cost is only to pay for maintenance. It's a 9 hole course and challenging - kind of like a links-style version of Confederation here (but at a third the cost!).
We were lucky to go in summertime - it was low season, so I was able to walk on every time I went. The locals told me it gets a lot busier in winter. Several of the snowbirds just buy an annual membership for around $100 and golf the whole time they are there.
