Niihau is a privately owned Island. For generations the Robinson Family has sheltered this remote Island in paradise as a legacy to Hawaiian people. Closed to the public, Niihau has experience very little western influence, flourishing today as it did a 100 years ago. With its clear waters teeming with dozens of species of marine life above vibrant unspoiled colorful reefs, dolphins and turtles playing about, Niihau is one of Kauai's most treasured hidden secrets.
