&title=LYDGATE PARK& &descText=This 40-acre park contains an enormous lush green meadow adjacent to the play structure, ideal for family picnics, sports, frisbee or even flying a kite in the dependable tradewinds. We heartily recommend Lydgate Park as the #1 child-friendly destination on the island of Kauai. You can also fly a kite, play frisbee on the wide, sandy beach, collect shells and driftwood. There are showers for rinsing off sand and salt before going home, and a lifeguard. Kamalani Playground is the best spot on Kauai for kids --6,000 square feet of funland, with mirror mazes, a suspension bridge, lava tubes and circular slide. This popular park is a great place for a picnic or for kite flying on the green..& &alertText=The Friends of Kamalani and Lydgate Park,%0aare dedicated to making this the best beach park in the State of Hawaii.& &googleMap=http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q%26hl=en%26geocode=%26q=lydgate+park+Kauai,+HI%26sll=22.033775,-159.339695%26sspn=0.107568,0.118618%26ie=UTF8%26ll=22.039265,-159.337034%26spn=0.026891,0.029655%26z=15%26iwloc=A%26om=1& &alert=0& &swim=0& &guard=0& &surf=0& &kayak=0& &toilet=1& &camp=0& &child=1& &safety=1& &done=yes&
