High winds over night also left branches and leaves littering the trail and the boardwalk trail from the parking lot to Ke’e Beach, a press release said.
Kauai County lifeguards closed the beach due to high surf and turbulent ocean conditions.
“Reopening of the trail and the beach depends on weather conditions and rangers will continue to monitor,” the release said.
