I have been to Kauai several times, both in summer and winter. Without a doubt, the helicopter tours were the best thing I ever did in my entire 49 years. Even though there has been two fatal crashes in March 2007 within 4 days of eachother (one with Heli USA and the other with Inter-Island aka. Smokey Mtn) I would still recommend going on at least one tour. I would probably pick Island Air (not Inter-Island) because as far as I know they have never had a fatal accident. Another must-do is a trip to Waimea Canyon. It is jaw-dropping, the views are spectacular. I am going back this summer and plan to camp out for two weeks at Anini Beach or Hanalei Beach. Anyone have experience camping in these two areas?
