Meet Kauai

Choosing a favorite from Hawaii's gorgeous array of islands is like naming your favorite flavor of ice cream. My personal favorite is Kauai. If I was visiting just one island, Kauai would be the place.
Kauai encapsulates all that is wonderful about Hawaii into a small manageable island.  There's just one main road here, and it doesn't even traverse the entire island.  
The island is draped in emerald valleys, sharp mountain spires and jagged cliffs. Some parts of Kauai are only accessible by sea or air, revealing views beyond your imagination.  If you only take one helicopter ride in your life, do it here.  
The north coast has more frequent rainfall.  Even then the scenery is stunning.  Beach lovers will be happy on the sunny southern coast of Poi'pu.  Visitors often choose to split their time between resorts on both coasts of the island.
Kauai's Coconut Coast on the east  side of the island offers hotels and apartments  that are quite affordable by Hawaiian standards.  They're a smart choice for active travelers looking to budget more for Kauai's air and boat sightseeing options.
