How Far from West Side to North Shore?

If all you did was drive straight through with no traffic problems in Lihue you might expect a least 2 hours. Mileage-wise it%26#39;s a bit over 60 miles. But the speed limit and road conditions do limit the speed you鈥檇 drive on the roads around the island.

I would agree with that time frame. It%26#39;s not the distance as much as the fact the roads are busy with tourists who are taking all the sights in. We were there in Oct, and based in Lihue which sort of made for similar times in either direction, and like most tourists were constantly looking in a lot of directions other than down the road, which does cause you to drive slower. The island is small enough, and so beautiful you will want to see it all no matter where you stay.

More like 3 hours, even without traffic. I%26#39;ve done it... but then, I don%26#39;t drive nearly as fast as kwils does. %26lt;G%26gt;

...shouldn%26#39;t that be: Kwils%26#39; Chauffeur does? (pretty sure that surf-blue Hummer Limo that blew me off the highway just west of Waimea was his.)

Dang! I%26#39;ll have to beware of that one.
