Kauai: The Garden Isle
Kauai is Hawaii’s “Garden of Eden.” It was the locale of South Pacific, Jurassic Park, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Elvis Presley’s Blue Hawaii. It is the tropical paradise people dream about, with lush valleys and towering green mountains, cascading waterfalls and freshwater lagoons, secluded beaches and wild gardens bursting forth in bunches of plumeria, hibiscus, anthuriums, orchids, ginger and birds of paradise. Kauai is also Hawaii’s oldest island, steeped in history and intertwined with Hawaii’s mythical little people, the menehune, more than any other island.
