Unique Experiences for your Kauai Honeymoon
Na Pali Coast- the most spectacular coastline in Hawaii (and maybe the world)
The North Shore of Kauai is a breathtaking mountainous coastline, a natural wonder with Hawaii’s most dramatic scenery. Nāpali Coast State Wilderness Park is known for its towering pali, or sea cliffs, punctuated by narrow valleys, streams and cascading waterfalls. The Kalalau Trail is a steep footpath running through the park, between nearby Ke’e Beach and sandy Kalalau Beach. It cuts through 5 valleys, including the Hanakoa Valley, with its native plants and old agricultural terraces.

Wailua Falls/ Wailua State Park
Wailua Falls, it cascades into two streams, dropping 80 feet below. Some even say the distance is more accurately described as 200 feet. Perhaps this is because the size and appearance of the falls is determined by the amount of rainfall farther up the mountains.
Like other spectacular spots on Kauai used as film locations, Wailua Falls is most recognized in the opening credits of the long-running television show “Fantasy Island.” Easily accessible, Wailua Falls can be seen from the roadside, so you can leave your hiking boots behind.
Spouting Horn Blowhole
Spouting Horn Beach Park is a delightful lookout where you can watch a blowhole spout a plume of sea water into the air. This waterspout occurs whenever waves are forced under the lava shelf and up through an opening in the rocky coast. Depending on the tide and ocean conditions, the water may spout as far as 50 feet into the air. If the light is right, you may be able to catch a rainbow in the sea spray.
Waimea Canyon- the Grand Canyon of Kauai , Hawaii
A wonderful Kauai Honeymoon Day trip, check out the Waimea Canyon, on Kauai’s West Side, it is described as “The Grand Canyon of the Pacific.” Stretching 14 miles long, 1 mile wide and more than 3,600 feet deep, the Waimea Canyon Lookout provides panoramic views of crested buttes, rugged crags and deep valley gorges. The grand inland vistas go on for miles.
