10 Reasons to Vacation on Kauai, Hawaii

By: Phyllis Wheeler

If you are planning a vacation, you may be looking for fun in the sun. One of the places you could consider might be Hawaii.

If you like less-crowded vacation spots, you should definitely consider Kauai, Hawaii's least-traveled large island. Here are 10 reasons why:

Put your face in the water (wearing a mask or goggles) at any beach and watch the colorful fish. You don't even need a snorkel.

2. There are sheltered beaches for kids on the sunny south side.

3. Adventurous folks will find zipline tours, helicopter tours, and plenty of opportunities to kayak to see amazing scenery.

4. The coast of northwest Kauai caught the eyes of several Hollywood directors, who used it in movies from South Pacific to Jurassic Park to King Kong and Raiders of the Lost Ark. It will catch your eye too! Take a boat, kayak, or helicopter to see it.

5. Your frequent-flyer miles may be able to get you there.

6. Since it is a U.S. destination, U.S. liability laws apply for diving outfitters. So you are more likely to have a safe diving experience with safe equipment than in non-U.S. destinations.

7. Do you like crowds or dislike them? If you want to get away from crowds, Kauai is the place for you.

8. Endangered wild life such as monk seals and sea turtles can be found in or near the beaches. Be careful not to touch! But do bring your camera.

9. You get to learn about Niihau, the Forbidden Island, and see it from 17 miles away, low on the southwest horizon.

10. Your vacation may be cheaper than you think, especially compared to some other tropical destinations that are not in the U.S. You're using U.S. currency, and that will help.

So, planning your next vacation, scope out Kauai.
