For the past 13 years, I have owned and operated my rental shop, and it has been my livelihood, my pride, and a big part of my life. I rent snorkel gear, beach gear, and golf clubs,
and over the years I have had the privilege of meeting so many wonderful visitors and families from around the world. I have always tried my best to be a good ambassador of the island and to share
the aloha spirit with everyone who walks through my door. Right now, though, after Hurricane
Lowell, my area has been hit hard, and my shop has been left without
customers.
As a sole proprietor,
this shop is my only income, and the slowdown after the hurricane has made it incredibly difficult to keep up with basic operating expenses. I also have a wonderful part-time employee who depends on
this job, and I am doing everything I can to keep the shop open and continue employing them. I am not asking for help for extras or personal spending. These funds will go toward covering losses and
the basic costs of staying open during this recovery period so my business can make it through this difficult time.
If you are able to
help, I would be deeply grateful for your support. After 13 years of building this shop, I do not want to see it end like this. My hope is to remain open for many more years and continue serving
visitors and families the best I can. Any donation, no matter the size, will help me get through this post-hurricane period and give my shop a chance to recover. Thank you for your kindness, support,
and aloha.The link to help is right below this text.

Aloha,
Kauai Bound is a locally owned and operated snorkel and golf
equipment rental shop located at 3486 Rice St in Lihue,
Walking distance from the cruise ships and the Marriott/ Royal Sonesta, right behind Kalapaki Bay, Kauai Bound will get you set up with your snorkel, beach, and golf rentals.
Kauai Bound provides state of the art high quality snorkel
sets that are cleaned and sanitized daily for rent, by the day or the
week, or new sets for purchase.
We do carry prescription sets (-2 through -6) for the same price as our standard snorkel gear. Nothing extra for prescription!
I do not carry "grades" of gear, no haggling over levels of snorkel gear and prices, we only carry the best, for a great price.
Wilson (Profile HL) golf club sets (not the cheaper ones you find at the discount stores) in right hand, left hand,
and Senior, all available as daily and weekly rentals for a VERY reasonable price.
(Golf Clubs are $30 per day or $120 per week)
Women's sets - Magnolia by Wilson for $35 per day or $140 per week.
Also available are a limited number of Callaway golf clubs for $40 per day or $150 per week.
There is quite a variety of Metal prints
taken from all over the island of Kauai both above and below the water available for purchase that have been taken by the owner,
Christopher (Chris) Holmes.

Mahalo and hope to see you here at Kauai Bound!
