Hawaii - Kauai Holidays

The “Garden Isle” as Kauai is known, is the oldest of Hawaii’s main islands and boasts a stunning jagged landscape and dazzlingly scenic views. Visitors can gaze at the Waimea Canyon which is 10 miles long and was created by an earthquake which nearly split the island in two or bask in nearly 50 miles of sand-soaked coastline.

A holiday in Kauai also boasts some activities for thrill seekers, who can kayak down Wailua River slide across zip-lines over the island’s rainforest.
