Hidden Hawaii
Airing Date: Apr 5th, 2008
Kauai stands apart from the other islands of Hawaii. It is the least developed and most laid-back of the four main islands and offers pristine and stunning natural beauty just begging to be explored and enjoyed. This is the place to go if you really want to escape the crowds, it's almost like this island was kept a secret from so many for so long...until now.
There are great ways to experience the hidden Hawaii, on Kauai. One of these is on a catamaran tour of the Na Pali coast - this natural wonder has incredible cliffs dropping into the ocean and the catamaran takes you to explore this area of the island that can only be reached by boat or on foot. Captain Andy's operate snorkel tours to the Na Pali Coast year-round with great commentary showing some of the most stunning locations along this coastline.
Continuing on the water, if surfing is Hawaii's religion, then Hanalei Bay is one of its holiest locations, renowned for its incredible surf conditions.
Kauai is known as the island of discovery, and Kayak Kauai take tours to Secret Falls, incredible waterfalls up the Wailea River or out to the ocean for some kayak surfing.
If you want to get off the water for a bit, try zipping with Outfitters Kauai. They run full day zipling safaris and it's the best way to see some of Kauai's forests and waterfalls.
