Courtles

Courtles appears in beach databases for Kauai County at coordinates 22.20934 North, 159.5979898 West, though these coordinates place the location north of Kauai island proper, suggesting potential data quality issues or errors in the database entry. The latitude of 22.2 degrees would position this location approximately 60 miles north of Kauais north shore, well beyond the islands boundaries in open ocean. The unusual single-word name lacks Hawaiian linguistic characteristics and does not appear in standard Hawaiian place name references or tourism resources. This entry likely represents a data entry error, transcription mistake, or placeholder value rather than a legitimate beach location. Kauai County does include several small islets and rocks offshore including Lehua Rock near Niihau, though none carry this name in official records. Visitors seeking beach information should verify coordinates and names through multiple authoritative sources before planning trips, as databases occasionally contain errors requiring correction. Legitimate Kauai beaches feature Hawaiian or English names tied to geographic features, historical events, or cultural significance, with coordinates falling within the islands actual land masses. This database entry warrants verification and potential correction to ensure accuracy of beach location data for Kauai County, with users advised to cross-reference information with official tourism resources, USGS maps, and local knowledge before attempting to locate beaches based solely on unverified database entries that may contain systematic errors or legacy data issues requiring cleanup and validation.
