Word of caution on Queen’s Bath

I enjoyed Tom Bentley’s article, “It’s Sweet Getting Sweaty” [April 26]. I have frequented many of the locations and eateries in my 34 years on Kauai.

The Queen’s Bath “attraction” needs more of a caveat than the “extra-slippery rocks in winter.” The wave action and currents are treacherous, difficult to read and predict, particularly for visitors with no Hawaii ocean experience. Our oceans and beaches need to be kept open and free, but should be promoted by the media and approached by the user with both caution and intelligence.
