With 750 miles of positively amazing coastline, the Hawaiian Islands are home to some of the world’s best waterfront restaurants. I can’t imagine anything more heavenly than enjoying a meal with friends and family, with the beautiful Pacific Ocean as the backdrop. In Hawaii, waterfront restaurants are a dime a dozen, but there is one waterfront restaurant surrounded not by the vast Pacific, but by a mesmerizing lagoon with crystalline waters. This is Tidepools, and it is an upscale Kauai restaurant that should absolutely be added to your Hawaiian dining bucket list.

Located in the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa, Tidepools serves upscale Hawaiian cuisine in open-air thatch huts overlooking a picturesque lagoon. And yes, it is as magical as it seems.
