Kauai Paradise Best of IgoUgo

Overview

Quote:
So many great things to do! We took a kayak trip and along with a short hike went to a beautiful waterfall where our group swam and relaxed. Although snorkeling on Key Largo is much better, for a first timer, like my husband, this was a great experience as well. One side of the island has very limited access (by boat or hiking).

The trail is fairly easy, not steep. And the views are beyond description. If you enjoy nature and don't mind a stroll in the woods, definitely worth the effort!Hanakapi'ai Beach is a breath-taking white sand beach with very few people surrounded by lush vegetation and gorgeous blue ocean. As close to paradise as I've ever seen.

Bring ear plugs if you have ears sensitive to noise! But the view is unbeatable! This was the one splurge we had on our honeymoon, and it was worth EVERY penny.
