By far this has been the best shave ice of our trip! Tried Jojo’s was not the kind of shave ice we were expecting, thicker chunks and not smooth.
Wailua is the place to get that nice smooth shave ice! The fresh fruit on top was amazing.
All of the shave ice we tried was delicious and they are open until 9PM. If you have been on Kauai for longer than 2 days you will notice most places close up early or before 7pm.
We will be back for more shave ice before we head back home!

Yummy!! They have some fun flavors here at Wailua shave ice. The ladies making the shave ice were very friendly. There’s also outdoor seating. Can’t wait to try another one of their flavors.

Best shave ice in Kauai! We were driving past the area during our first day and ensured we visited almost every day, sometimes taking a 1-2 hour detour! One such detour resulted in a 6-hr delay due to road blockage but none of us were complaining. Our fav was the Ube with coconut flakes!!

Our first time having shave ice and it didn’t disappoint! Loved the almond joy with ice cream on the bottom! There are seats inside if you want to come in and eat or you can take it to go.

Fair price for their portions. Delicious and shaved ice was enjoyable to eat than other spots I’ve tried and their ice is hard or rough. As you walk in you’re greeted and kudos for smiling. Will be back next trip!

This is the standard on the island of Kauai. I tried probably 5 snow cone spots and this was the mountaintop. Don’t miss out on this spot. Had the lavaflow and root beer float. Delicious is an understatement.

Best shave ice on Kaua’i! Got the strawberry mango, and my parents got the ube. Very light ice and great natural flavors. Definitely check it out!

Best shaved ice I’ve ever had. It was delicious and tasted like ice cream. Quick service. Had the ube shaved ice and loved it.

I learned quickly visiting Hawaii that you should absolutely judge it’s shaved ice based on the line of people waiting. We had multiple people tell us that this is the best shaved ice not just on Kauai but on all of the Hawaiian Islands. This proved to be absolutely not true. There are certainly better shaved ice options. What makes this place at the lower end of the list is not just the fact that the quality of the shaved ice was just not that good, but there’s also no interaction with people here. You order through a kiosk, and there are people behind the counter who make it, all they do is shout out your name when it’s done like Starbucks next door. The shaved ice is mediocre at best. I do want to give a shout out to the owners of this facility because they have learned how to maximize profits and I applaud that. The facility was clean and the three young ladies behind the counter who were making the shaved ice appeared to be happy and get along.
