Kauai
The island of Kauai is the oldest island in the Hawaiian Islands and the ridge is often called - "The Island Garden." These gorgeous beaches, green valleys and rugged mountains on the channel for a long time did not include guides and routes. Under the current law on the island no building should be higher than the Hawaiian coconut and hotels on the island are so divided that the tourists cannot go without ecstasy of beauty, "savagery" and "integrity" of the island of Kauai. The island of Kauai has about 49 kilometers in diameter, and its study is difficult without a car or without tours. And there are many things to see, from November to March, an amazing sight - whales, unique tours by helicopter, unforgettable tours to the ocean rafting, romantic day cruises at sunset, traveling by boat or ocean kayaking, snorkeling and diving, and much more. On the island great golf and horseback riding can be practiced. However, if you are interested in more active nightlife and shopping you better have a rest on the Big Island.
The island of Kauai has a tropical climate, only in different parts of the island there are different climatic zones: from the almost desert climate, humid climate in the riverbeds, the specific climate and the foothills of the climate of tropical forest (rain forests) on the mountain slopes. Rock of Na Pali is a natural barrier, which creates special conditions on the island. Poipu Beach is the crown jewel of the island with irresistible sand and an ideal location. Other notable attractions of the island are: Waimea Canyon, The Grand Canyon of the Pacific, the coast of Napali and Polihale. Napali Coast is known for its beautiful beaches, tropical weather and sunny climate. The only thing that can compare with the natural beauty of Kauai is the beauty of the Hawaiian people, with their boundless friendliness, Welcome - Aloha! Last year, the smallest island in the Hawaiian archipelago, was among the top five. But in 2004 the island of Bali, lost rank a little, and precisely because of its exoticism. Yes, of course, there are white beaches, which served as decorations for dozens of films, including "King Kong", "Indiana Jones", " The Blue Lagoon", but the main value of Kauai in virtually untouched nature. Here are diving centers , where you can buy tours to dive off the coast of Kauai as well as a nearby uninhabited island of IAC. In addition to diving Kauai has to offer climbing the majestic mountain ranges the Coast Na Pali where the rocks break off vertically into the sea and found a lot of birds and exotic plants. Waimea Canyon is impressive - 23 km of steep greenish volcanic rocks at the foot of which rolls a fast muddy river. The center of Kauai is the city of Lihue, where there is the airport.
