Kauai, the oldest of the
major Hawaiian Islands, is alive with lush vegetation and tropical
flowers. Waimea Canyon (the "Grand Canyon of the
Pacific"), Wailua Falls, Fern Grotto, and the magnificent Na
Pali coast are highlights of the "Garden Isle," and
sights not to be missed.
Kauai is also a land of
the menehunes, Hawaii's "little people" who, according
to legend, preceded the Polynesians by centuries and built massive
fish ponds and other structures in single nights.
The sheer beauty of Kauai
has made it a favorite of honeymooners and others who relish the
quiet life. But even on this unhurried island, there's plenty to
do, such as helicopter tours, golf, tennis, rafting and river
cruises.
