Kauai is a pretty compact island, so if you’re really willing to pack it all in, you could see the bulk of Kauai’s sights in four days, but what’s the hurry? You’re on island time now. If you could stretch it to a week, that would give you more than enough time to chase waterfalls, explore Waimea Canyon and lay by the pool with a cocktail in hand.

What to pack depends largely on your itinerary, however, as a general guide pack your sense of adventure, some comfortable shoes or hiking boots, a rain jacket, lightweight clothing and a swimsuit.

Kauai is a tropical island paradise that is teaming with incredible adventures and wildlife. For breathtaking views, Waimea Canyon is a must, as are Na Pali Coast, Uluwehi Falls (also known as Secret Falls), Limahuli Garden and Preserve, Fern Grotto and sunset at Kekaha Beach.

You know what they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That said, Kauai is home to some undeniably breath-taking sights including Waimea Canyon, Na Pali Coast, Wailua Falls and Hanalei Bay, to name just a few.

The great news is that Kauai is pretty magical all year-round, however if you’re keen to avoid jam-packed beaches, the off-peak or shoulder season between September and December and between April and June are ideal.
