You won't believe your eyes as you gaze upon the towering cliffs and canyons of Waimea Canyon - it's a natural wonder unlike anything else on the island! Be amazed by the spectacular Spouting Horn Blowhole, where ocean waves shoot water through lava rock. Sugar cane fields surround you in the charming town of Hanapepe. Don't miss the stunning Hanapepe Valley lookout and the famous Swinging Bridge. We will take a break and enjoy a delicious lunch from Waimea Plantation Cottages at Chicken in a Barrel BBQ. Then, explore Koke'e State Park's nature trail, taking an easy walk among Hawaii's native flora and fauna. Listen for the enchanting chirps of the rare red 'apapane or i'iwi birds sipping nectar from the blooming native trees. Catch broad views of Waimea Valley from Pu'u Hinahina Lookout and pay tribute to King Kaumuali'i with a visit to the newly unveiled statue at Pa'ula'ula, also known as the Russian Fort. Lastly, head to Kauai Coffee Plantation near the coast, where the coffee orchard reaches towards the ocean. See the complete coffee process from blossom to roasting and relax under the warm Hawaiian sun. Sample the exclusive line of estate-grown Hawaiian coffees.

See the Spectacular Waimea Canyon
Often called “The Grand Canyon of the Pacific,” Waimea Canyon is located on Kauaʻi's West Side. Although it's not quite as big as the Arizona version, it is still an incredible wonder unique to Hawaii. The views from the Waimea Canyon Lookout are simply breathtaking - picture buttes, rugged crags, and deep valley gorges for miles on end! The canyon stretches 14 miles long, 1 mile wide, and over 3,600 feet deep. You won't find anything else like this in Hawaii!
Take a Short Nature Hike
Explore the natural beauty of Koke'e State Park on a relaxing stroll through a gorgeous nature trail. You'll be surrounded by a variety of Hawaiian plants and animals, including the scarce red 'apapane and i'iwi birds. They love to drink the sweet nectar of native flower blossoms! Stay along the top ridge and take in the sweeping, beautiful views across the canyon.
Visit Hanapepe Town
Historic Hanapepe Town is surrounded by lush sugar cane fields. Catch a glimpse of the stunning Hanapepe Valley from the lookout and don't miss the chance to stroll across the famous Hanapepe Swinging Bridge. This historic landmark is a must-see, filled with old-fashioned charm. For over a century, the suspension bridge has connected locals and taro farmers, and today it remains a popular attraction for visitors. Join in on the fun and cross this classic swinging bridge!
