Aloha and welcome to Kauai! Known as the “Garden Isle,” Kauai is home to some of Hawaii’s most majestic beaches, lush tropical valleys, and unimaginable shorelines — it’s no wonder why Hollywood continually uses this island as a backdrop for several blockbuster films. From adrenalin filled activities like ziplining to a day at a world class spa, Kauai truly does have something to do for all. Check out our local favorites and #WhereTo go on Kauai:
