UAI C H A S E WAT E R FA L L S I N K AUA I PRO TIP: KAUAI MUST-DO Take a sunset cruise along the accordion-folded cliffs of the stunning Nā Pali Coast. In Kauai, nature is just showing off. Isolated aquamarine bays, emerald mountain peaks, cascading waterfalls surrounded in exotic flowers — it’s not nicknamed “The Garden Island” for nothing. If you’re up for an adventure, Kauai is the spot for you. Hike the staggering 10-mile-long Waimea Canyon, pause at dozens of spectacular coastal lookouts and chase all the magical waterfalls, from the prismatic Wailua to the towering Hanakapiai. With pristine nature all around, there are countless ways to enjoy Kauai. A helicopter tour over the mountains? Check. Swimming with the dolphins? You got it. After you’ve had your fill of hiking, kayaking, zip lining, whale-watching and off-roading, lounge around watching the surfers at Hanalei Beach.
