The Garden Island
 
With the most rainfall of any of the Hawaiian Islands (at Mt. Waialeale), lush Kauai is known as "The Garden Island."  Beautifully sculpted by the Pacific winds and rain, Kauai offers spectacular scenery, and in many of its remote areas there are no roads. Truly a tropical paradise with many activities. Take in a hike on the Sleeping Giant Mountain in Wailua, or explore the remote beaches by kayak and discover the secret waterfalls. The vacation of a lifetime.  Let Kauai Condo Vacations help you discover Kauai.

A geological wonder 14 miles long and one mile wide, and in places over 3,500 feet deep, this canyon offers scenic lookouts and panoramic views. Waimea Canyon Drive leads you to the lower lookout point, continues into the dramatic interior, ending Kokee State Park. Numerous trails for beginners and seasoned hikers.

Hawaiian Luau on Kauai

Kilauea Point Lighthouse

Kilauea Point Lighthouse

On the island`s north shore on Kilauea Point and standing tall at 52 feet, this beautiful lighthouse shares an area with the Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge. The rugged north coastline and the blue Pacific waters creates the perfect photo opportunities. You`ll enjoy a wide variety of seabirds and annual migrations of humpback whales in December. A must-see on your visit to the North Shore of Kauai. Roughly a 45 minute drive north of Lihue.

NaPali Coast Cruise

NaPali Coast Cruise

The NaPali Coast has 6,000+ acres of land mostly located in the center of the rugged 16 miles on the northwest coast of Kauai.

Blue Dolphin Charters; HoloHolo Charters. Dinner cruises and snorkeling options available.
Location: Northwestern Shores of Kauai
