The Garden Isle's Magnificent Coastline, Cliffs and Canyon
The forces of nature have had plenty of time—over 6 million
years, in fact—to work their erosive magic on Kauai’s shores,
producing more sand beach than any other isle of the
archipelago, the incredible plunging Na Pali cliffs and the
dazzling orange Waimea Canyon, the largest canyon in the
Pacific. And with a climate that provides just the right amount
of sun and an abundance of life-giving rain, Kauai is blanketed
with some of the earth’s most incredible native flora.
Experience the wonders of Kauai on this Backroads trip featuring
some of the best hiking this stunningly beautiful island has to
offer, as well as plenty of sun-soaked downtime, poolside or on
the beach.
