Fern Grotto

This attraction is known primarily as the most romantic spot on the island of Kauai, and the area can be rented for weddings.

A basin for storm runoff was built right above the grotto, and water that leaked through encouraged the growth of maidenhair and Boston sword ferns.

[2] On April 24, 2006, the grotto was closed by the Hawaii State Department of Land and Natural Resources for safety reasons.

Heavy rains in March, 2006, caused a number of rocks and boulders to fall from the ceiling of the grotto onto the viewing area below.

It was re-opened in 2007 following reinforcement of the rock walls and installation of ramps to access to the grotto.
