KauaiThe oldest of
the islands that were formed by
volcanic activity is Kauai. Kauai is
known for its natural wonder and
virtually untouched open space,
perfect elements to find yourself
with your travel party. Flora and
fauna abound on the island,
including some species that
can’t be found anywhere else,
making it a chosen destination
for nature lovers. Kauai also is
home to Waimea Canyon, which is known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. The site where it is located, along the Napali Coast, combines stunning views from the lookout point and challenging hiking paths that feature equally amazing peaks and valleys

with views that are beyond compare. While its remote location makes it largely inaccessible by land, the Napali Coast can be reached through a boat tour originating from Port Allen in the town of Eleele on Hanapepe Bay.
Golfing also is a big draw for Kauai, with nine different courses to choose from. Poipu Beach is both well-known and home to the many hotels and resorts on the island. While on Kauai, visit Opaeka’a Falls for some of the most

easily accessible waterfalls on the island. For a more remote adventure, consider a stop at Fern Grotto, only accessible by kayak or boat going up the river from Wailua. The off-the-beaten-path natural beauty of the island gives Kauai its characteristic charm.
