We were on the may 14th sailing, in Maui we parked about a ten minute walk from the pier in a dirt lot across from Akamai motors(a used car dealership) it was free. In Kauai there was a lot of free parking on the street in front of the port near the park. Also across that street there is a small road with an apartment complex, there is a lot of street parking right there ( this is where we parked, street name is Wilcox Rd).
