>>> 3) The website you want is kauaidiscovery.com. If you two love the

>>> tours than going on your own. There are rafting tours - the Napali
>>> Esplorer - I did that and loved it. There are biking and snorkeling
>>> tours. Because of the coral reefs around the islands, again I feel it
>>> pays to be with someone who knows the area and the seas. There are
>>> waterfall hiking excursions. There are Kayaking, horseback riding -
>>> there is the Kauai Backroads Adventure, a
>>> four-wheel drive van - there are helicopter tours. Places that you will
>>> want to see are Waimea Canyon, Wailua River and the Fern Grotto, Hanalei,
>>> Poipu. If you go to the website, I am sure you will find info that will

>>> 4) The north side of the island is the nicest. Hike the Napali coast,
>>> check out the beaches west of Princeville for snorkeling and this cave
>>> place called the Blue Lagoon. There are nice botanical gardens both in
>>> the north and in the southern area (Poipu). The one in the south was
>>> where they filmed Jurassic Park. The Hanalei river is nice for kayaking,
>>> it is in the northern part. I went there before I was diagnosed with
>>> celiac disease, so I can't say where you should go to eat. There was a
>>> health food store that I went to in the
>>> north. Kauai was great, enjoy it!!

>>> 5) In college I backpacked with a science class all over the islands. My
>>> favorite spot off the beaten path on Kauai was Kalalau Beach down the
>>> Napali coast. It is an eleven mile hike down a two foot wide switch- back
>>> path with a drop off to the ocean. It has a waterful next to the camping
>>> area. We carried in all our supplies (there is nothing there) and camped
>>> for a week. You can only walk in or swim in from a boat that drops you
>>> out in the water (it's protected). But this was many years ago so I'm
>>> not sure what all has changed. In any case the area is unbelievably
>>> beautiful and the next beach down is Hidden Beach with the fantastic
>>> gigantic lava rock arch where the Jessica Lange "King Kong" was filmed.
