Russian Fort
About
Russian Fort, on Kauai, stands along Kaumualii Hwy, Waimea, HI 96796, United States, on the island's western side. First-time visitors should expect an outdoor historic site rather than an indoor museum, with the remains set in open ground near the Waimea area.
A 3.6 out of 5 average from 488 reviews suggests a range of reactions among those who stop by. More on the site is published at http://www.fortelizabeth.org/.
Getting there from Lihue, Kapaa or Poipu is a straightforward drive along the main highway, and the fort's roadside position makes it an easy stop for anyone touring the west of the island. Waimea itself sits close by.
English and Hawaiian are both official languages in Hawaii, and Hawaiian words appear widely in place names, which helps when reading signs. Humpback whales migrate into Hawaiian waters to breed between roughly November and May, a seasonal draw for the west coast. Trade winds blow from the northeast, bringing most rain to the windward coasts while leeward areas stay drier.
