Somethin's Fishy at Lydgate Beach

A very interesting creature was found at Lydgate beach recently. . .

Lydgate beach is one of our favorites on Kauai.  We've spent many sunny days there.  The beach is sandy and ringed with palm tress.  The visitor's facilities are accommodating and Kauai's finest life guards keep a watchful eye on the swimmers.  Lydgate offers two swimming lagoons, which are safely enclosed by large lava rocks, that form a barrier against the ocean waves.  The largest of the two lagoons is ideal for swimming and snorkeling, while the smaller one is especially created with toddlers in mind.  The lagoons were specifically designed to  keep the big ocean waves out, but still allow sea life and ocean water to circulate -- a natural filtering process.  Lydgate Beach is ideal for little ones and people who prefer not to swim in the open ocean. Snorkeling is fantastic. The water is so clear that you don't even need a mask to witness the colorful and abundant sea life residing in the lagoons. Just look down into the water to see beautiful fish and other critters...

...AN OCTOPUS! Isn't he adorable?! The kids and adults enjoyed watching his "expert" escape moves.  He kept trying to climb out of the bucket! I should add that he wasn't harmed .  He was returned safely where he was found shortly after I took this photo.

And, those cute sandy toes at the bottom of the photo belong to my youngest.

Lydgate beach is located about two miles south of the condo. For more information about the beach and to see the incredible playground also located at Lydgate, please check out my November 2012 post.

Aloha!
