Verdant valleys and cascading waterfalls make Kauai a nature lover's dream come true. From the grand Waimea Canyon to the sheer cliffs of the Na Pali Coast, Kauai's rich landscape is simply breathtaking.
Yet one must consider why this island is so lush and green... well, it rains a lot here-a lot! Don't worry though, in the Hawaiian tradition a light rainfall is often regarded as a "blessing." It also turns the green lawns at Princeville into a golfer's paradise.
Kauai is the ideal setting for eco-adventures where you can kayak up the Wailua River to the fern grotto or hike your way to secluded Hideaway's Beach.
