Even if you've never visited Kauai before, you're sure to have glimpsed this enchanting island in films such as South Pacific, From Here to Eternity, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Jurassic Park. Kauai's truly cinematic beauty is even more remarkable in person. The Garden Isle, as it is known, is a natural paradise, with verdant foliage covering every mountain and valley. Towering green sea cliffs line Kauai's Na Pali Coast and make a spectacular panorama when viewed from a helicopter or boat. Kauai is home to Waimea Canyon, The Grand Canyon of the Pacific, as well as Mount Waialeale, the wettest spot on earth. Rainfall over that area is almost nonstop, while surrounding areas remain clear and sunny. Dozens of sparkling, cascading waterfalls originate from Waialeale and offer spectacular sights.
