The Kauai Department of Parks and Recreation (DOPR) has announced the temporary closure of Lydgate Campground from November 12th to November 21st, 2024 with camping scheduled to resume on November 21st at noon. This brief closure is to enable DOPR staff to conduct a thorough cleaning of the campground and address maintenance needs that require full access to the site.
The campground, located within the Lydgate Beach Park complex, is a popular spot on Kauai’s eastern shore known for its oceanfront location, family-friendly environment, and proximity to attractions like the Lydgate Park swimming ponds and the Kamalani Playground. The maintenance work aims to ensure a clean, well-kept environment for campers, residents, and visitors alike, enhancing the park’s natural beauty and facilities.
Campers who have already secured permits during the closure period are being contacted and will receive full refunds on permit fees. Additionally, the DOPR is offering assistance for campers seeking alternative locations by providing permits at other Kauai County campgrounds.
