Kaua`i

What can I say about Hawaii? The island of Kauai is absolutely gorgeous. It’s small enough to see it all while you are there and it’s so laid back you won’t want to leave. Our friend Myles lives there with his family and someday we will take the kids there to visit.

Just Heaven- going back.

absolutely gorgeous.

I’ve heard so much about Kauai and I am so excited that we are going in November! Yeah!

My husband and I got married on Kaua’i. It’s very beautiful and laid back. The people are very nice.
If you are looking for someplace with a lot of nightlife, this is not your place. For us it was perfect, tons of natural beauty and things to do like hiking and snorkeling. The Island has every kind of ecosystem you could imagine, from desert to rainforest. It’s amazing.

I’ve been there 3 times. It’s absolutely magical. The first time I went there I was 14 years old and we were staying in these quaint hut looking rooms. I remember waking up to rain, but it wasn’t cold or windy, it was moist. And I ran around the whole plantation. I came back soaking wet and renewed.

It’s very nice in Kauai. I went there with my family and had a nice time. We stayed in place that was kind of like a house so it felt like we were actually living there, which was so cool. We went on a speed boat to go snorkling which was fun and did lots of other cool stuff there.

The 3rd time I went to the Islands, I made it to this one.

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?

Kauai is more of a relax island. It is very local, in nature. There are several things you should do on kauai. First is go to Hanalei Bay and try a Bubba Burger, and the chinese place across the street. Next to Bubbas is a surf shop, infact all the surf shops in Hanalei are owned by the same person, when I say all, I mean two. One on either side of the street. Second, go golfing at either Princeville or Makai, two of the best courses in the world. Poipu Bay also has a great golf course and the Sony Open is held there during Thanksgiving if i am not mistaken. Third, go to the BullShed, it’s a great resturant in Kapaa Town opposite of the Safeway. It has a billboard that is usually overgrwon with plants. Many locals eat there and it sits on the water. Fourth, Kayak up the River, (I can’t spell it but it’s cloes to weiamea)and see the waterfall. Fifth, use the oneway bridges, just don’t hog them or the locals will get angary. Sixth, HAVE FUN
