Kauai waterfallThis Garden Island often is considered the most beautiful of the Hawaiian Islands because of its tropical rainforest, desolate moonscapes, and more than 40 spectacular beaches. Life on Kauai is unhurried from the Na Pali Coast to Waimea Canyon with plenty of unforgettable beaches and stunning waterfalls in between.

To visit Kauai is to quickly lose yourself in the quiet majesty of the island's tropical setting and extraordinary natural heritage. Come; discover the legendary aloha spirit that abounds in this friendly Garden Island paradise.

Most people have already seen Kauai on the movie screen as the Eden-like backdrop for films including Blue Hawaii, South Pacific, Jurassic Park, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Outbreak, and Gilligan's Island. Yet a camera lens scarcely can do justice to the Garden Island.

Some of the best golf courses in the Hawaiian Islands are found on Kauai, including the Poipu Bay Resort Golf Course, known from the PGA Grand Slam of Golf; and the Prince Courses at the Princeville Resort.
