Explore the Garden Isle of Kauai
Few things are more iconic on Kauai than the Na Pali Coast. Whether you choose to hike through the coastline, take a sunset boat tour or view the rugged cliffs from the skies in a helicopter, the Na Pali Coast is an unforgettable adventure.
Known as the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific," Waimea Canyon offers multiple lookout points with breathtaking panoramic views of deep gorges with colorful cliffs and lush valleys. For the more adventurous explorers, hike the trails through the canyon.
Discover why the Hanalei Valley lookout is one of the most photographed spots in all of Hawaii. Nestled on Kauai's north shore, stop by the lookout for an Instagram-worthy photo of the taro patches below before heading over to dip your toes into the calm waters of Hanalei Bay.
Located near Poipu Beach, Spouting Horn is a natural blowhole formed out of the seaside lava rocks and spouts water when the ocean swells rush into the lava tube. Listen for the distinctive hissing sound as water gushes up in the air.
Get some sand between your toes and soak up some sunshine on one of Kauai's stunning beaches. Poipu Beach, Hanalei Bay and Tunnels Beach are just a few of the island's picturesque shores.

Discover Kauai
For first-time visitors to Kauai, the South Shore and North Shore are popular areas to stay. Poipu on the South Shore is known for sunnier weather, beaches and convenient access to dining and activities. Princeville on the North Shore offers dramatic scenery, lush landscapes and a quieter, resort-style atmosphere. Both areas provide a strong introduction to Kauai, depending on travel style and season.
Yes. Kauai is especially well-suited for travelers who enjoy nature and a slower pace. Families appreciate outdoor exploration and beaches, couples are drawn to the island’s peaceful atmosphere and scenic settings, and nature-focused travelers love the hiking, waterfalls and dramatic coastlines. Kauai’s less-developed feel makes it ideal for guests seeking a more tranquil Hawaiian experience.
Yes. Kauai has oceanfront resorts, particularly along the South Shore and in select North Shore locations, that provide easy access to beaches and scenic areas. Staying oceanfront allows guests to enjoy coastal views while remaining within driving distance of attractions like Waimea Canyon, Na Pali Coast viewpoints and hiking areas.
Near Poipu, visitors can enjoy swimming, snorkeling, beach walks and coastal trails, plus easy access to historic sites and scenic drives. Near Princeville, travelers often explore lookout points, hiking trails and nearby beaches along the North Shore. Across the island, highlights include Waimea Canyon, the Na Pali Coast, waterfalls and boat or helicopter tours that showcase Kauai’s natural beauty.
Kauai is a year-round destination, but weather can vary by season and location. Summer often brings calmer ocean conditions on the North Shore, while winter months are typically better for South Shore beaches. Spring and fall are popular for fewer crowds and balanced conditions. The best time to visit depends on preferred activities and which part of the island you plan to explore.
Most visitors find that renting a car on Kauai is recommended. Attractions, beaches and viewpoints are spread across the island and public transportation is limited. Having a car allows travelers to explore Kauai’s diverse landscapes, from coastal areas to inland canyons, at their own pace.
