Explore Kauai and discover why it's called "the Garden Isle." This island is covered in tropical rainforest, bursting at the seams with life of all kinds. This drive will take you along the most famous stretch of Kauai's highway and show you the best sights the island has to offer.
Start visiting Grove Farm, where you'll glimpse what remains of the sugar plantation industry. Hear about this enormous industry, its connection to the American Civil War, and the lives of the plantation owners.
Then, reach Poipu Beach, where you can always see some surfers hitting the waves. If you're lucky, you might just spot Rocky, a Hawaiian monk seal who's something of a celebrity on Kauai. Don't miss the Hanapepe Swinging Bridge, a precarious bridge that spans a jaw-dropping valley and offers unique views.
Along the way, you will be filled in on the history of Kauai and Hawaii as a whole. Discover how the first voyagers crossed the ocean to get here and learn about their kings and traditions. See how the arrival of American businesses changed the islands forever, and hear about an attempted Russian invasion in the 19th century.
Next, visit the breathtaking Waimea Canyon, a lush 3,000-foot deep canyon where you can snap plenty of photos.
Along the way, you will be pointed out all Kauai’s best hiking spots. Finally, you'll arrive at the Nā Pali Coast State Wilderness Park, a secluded slice of jungle, cliffs, and crashing ocean that has all you could want from Kauai packed into one place!
