Hawaii’s Kauai – the Garden Isle

Kauai, known as the “Garden Isle,” is a Polynesian paradise filled with spectacular waterfalls, canyons, mountains, valleys, rain forests and secluded beaches. Since more than 80% of Kauau’s diverse terrain is inaccessible, one of the most popular ways of seeing the island is by helicopter tour. You’ll see the Manawaiopuna Falls where the movie Jurassic Park was filmed. You can see the rich colors and deep valleys of world-class Waimea Canyon, called the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. At the Na Pali Coast, you’ll take in the pristine cathedral cliffs, cascading waterfalls and secluded beaches, including the famous Lumahai Beach. You can also see Mount Waialeale Crater, the wettest spot on earth, where the majestic waterfalls cascade thousands of feet to the valley floor below. Of course, beach and night life add to the appeal of this island. You’ll find a great selection of vacation rentals to top off your visit to beautiful Kauai.
