Kauai Counter Clockwise


KAUAI COUNTER CLOCKWISE: WATCH THE VIDEO

 

When you come to Kauai you can stay in one place. You don't have to move from hotel to hotel because the island is small enough you can get all around it. But you want to be sure to visit all of the island's regions. Each one has its own distinct personality.

Some of the highlights in our video include:  The Waimea Canyon,  Kokee State Park, Kalalau Valley,  The Spouting Horn, The National Tropical Botanical Gardens, Poipu Beach, Gaylord's, Lahui, Kapaa, Kilauea Lighthouse and Wildlife Refuge, Kaupea Beach, Princeville, Hanalea, and Kaa Beach.
 



It's still possible in a single day to drive from Kauai's stark, southern highlands to its tropical north coast and see extraordinary sights, eat good food and find a variety of places to stay along the way. The National Tropical Botanical Garden actually has three separate facilities on Kauai, one on Maui and one in Florida for that matter. Guided and self-guided tours are offered. Check out its website for hours and prices.

Kauai's north shore is one of my favorite stretches of coast anywhere in the world. We also like to visit the town of Kilauea and stop by the Kilauea Bakery for morning treats and Banana Joe's for afternoon smoothies.

Nathan Caldwell, our guide at Kilauea Pt., still works for the United States Fish & Wildlife Service though he’s currently based in Washington, DC. He continues to work on Kauai issues, though his day-to-day view is not as good as it used to be. For more information about the Kilauea Lighthouse and its denizens, visit their website.
