Lonely Planet review for Lucy Wright Park
The Captain Cook landing site is noted with a plaque on a nondescript rock on the western side of the Waimea River at Lucy Wright Park. Notice how it's named after a prominent Waimea resident and not the captain himself? It's located on Ala Wai Rd, as soon as you cross the Waimea Bridge. This county park also has a ball field, picnic tables, rest rooms and showers.
Camping is permitted on a flat grassy area, the roadside site lacks much appeal; see for information about camping permits.
