Kauai

Explore Kauai

 

Kauai is an island that must be seen to be believed, a lush green jewel in the Pacific Ocean filled with deep forests, raging waters and towering cliffs. Almost like something from a movie - and indeed, Kauai has played backdrop to many - this island is filled with breathtaking natural scenery in every direction.

Helicopter tours offer a unique and unparalleled look at the spectacular beauty of Kauai from above. Adventure travelers may find themselves with more options on the island than time! Kauai offers excellent hiking for all ability levels, ziplining, kayaking, off-roading and so much more.

Our 5 Favorite Experiences on Kauai

  1. Explore Waimea Canyon, popularly known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific
  2. Get up-close views of the rugged Napali Coast, with its jagged cliffs and lush valleys, by air or boat
  3. Soak up the sun at Poipu Beach Park. If you're lucky, you may spot a monk seal frolicking in the crystalline waters.
  4. Visit the Spouting Horn blowhole. Be sure to listen for the roar of the legendary lizard that is believed to be trapped in its confines
  5. Experience Hawaiian hospitality at a luau – we recommend the Luau Makaiwa, Aulii Luau and Kalamaku Luau
