Kauai is truly the “Garden Isle” of Hawaii, with more beaches than any other Hawaiian Island and full of fun and exciting activities to do! Only on Kauai can you see Waimea Canyon (also known as “The Grand Canyon of the Pacific”) and Na pali coastline, where large amounts of rainfall over the centuries has eroded deep valleys and canyons teeming with waterfalls and hidden pools – and the reason why over 70 movies and television shows have been filmed on Kauai featuring its incredible landscapes. Have fun on a North Shore jungle adventure and afterward visit one of the nation’s most intact historic light stations near Kilauea town.
Kauai Air Activities
Kauai’s beauty is epitomized by the magnificent 3,000-ft sculpted mountains and cascading waterfalls of the sensational Waimea Canyon (known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific), and the awe inspiring deep valleys, hidden streams, and towering sea-cliffs of the Napali coastline. To see them from above is not only a photographers dream come true, its where you’ll experience memories to last a lifetime. You’ll find that so many “never to be forgotten” sights on Kauai can only be seen by helicopter or airplane – so make sure and plan to put at least one of these activities on your list of things to do!
Kauai Land Activities
Kauai is called the “Garden Isle” for its amazingly rich and lush landscape, with so many places just waiting to be discovered! As you explore the island you’ll enjoy scenic landscapes and attractions ranging from the miles of white sand beach at Polihale State Park and dramatic canyons and waterfalls of the Waimea Canyon, to the North Shore’s Kilauea Lighthouse and bustling little town of Hanalei. Take a walk or ride a bicycle along the new coastal path through Waipouli, and Kapaa to Kealia beach – or golf the top ranked golf courses in Princeville and Poipu. You’ll see why so many people consider Kauai the one island not to miss.
Kauai Water Activities
A pristine network of waterfall fed rivers provide a memorable and peaceful way to explore the many attractions of the lush Kauai interior by kayak – there’s even a tropical waterway consisting of open ditches, tunnels and flumes dating back to 1870 used for a Tubing Adventure. For your ocean activities you can choose from snorkel and dive tours to the Napali coastline or the “Forbidden Island” of Niihau aboard the 65′ sailing catamaran “HoloHolo“, take a surf lesson, go on a zodiac tour, or maybe just enjoy a visit to any of the great beaches from Polihale to Ke’e. Whatever you decide, you’ll find fun attractions and things to do at every turn!
