There are countless Kauai activities that can keep you busy during your vacation to the Garden Isle.

From swimming and snorkeling to surfing and hiking, you can keep yourself as busy as you want. Of course, if lounging with a cocktail on the beach is more your style, there’s plenty of shoreline to go around.

However, there are a few Kauai activities that every visitor must try.

Here are the top 10:

1. Waimea Canyon

The Grand Canyon of the Pacific is one sight you’ll never forget. This gorge is one of the most spectacular in the world and is rivaled perhaps only by the Grand Canyon itself.

For an in-depth experience you won’t forget, take one of the popular Waimea Canyon tours.

2. Na Pali Coast

The next item on your checklist should be the Na Pali Coast. This coastline is as unusual as it is striking. Like most of the nature in the Hawaiian Islands, it was formed by volcanic activity, giving it an appearance that is one of a kind.

The best way to see the coastline is by taking a dinner cruise or a helicopter tour.

3. Koke’e State Park

Just north of Waimea Canyon lies Koke’e State Park. This tropical park is full of natural beauty and wildlife.

Wilderness buffs will be able to camp out or enjoy over 45 miles of hiking trails.

4. Poipu Beach

Poipu Beach Park is well-known for its snorkeling and its wide variety of marine life. The beach is popular, so it can get pretty crowded from time to time, but it’s well worth a visit.

This beach has a lot to offer in addition to snorkeling, such as boogie boarding, surfing, swimming, and, of course, relaxing on the sand.

5. Hanalei Bay

This northern beach is good for surfing during the winter and swimming during the summer. This beach doesn’t get as crowded as other beaches, so it’s a good spot to stop if you want a little peace and quiet.

6. Polihale State Park

Polihale is another fantastic beach that every Kauai vacationer loves. This beach is even more secluded than Hanalei Bay and is the perfect spot for watching sunsets.

7. Kalapaki Beach

If you want crowds and bustle, head over to Honolulu. But here on Kauai, you should make the most of quiet paradise.

Kalapaki Beach is another must-visit beach that should make your list. It’s great for surfing, swimming, and soaking up the sun.

8. Kilalau Trail

This Na Pali Coast hiking trail is one of the most scenic trails you’ll find on the island.

One caveat, however: this trail is for wilderness junkies only. The 11-mile hike can be rough at times, but if you have what it takes, you’ll be rewarded with unforgettable views of one of the world’s most unusual coastlines.

9. Kilauea Lighthouse

The famous Kilauea Lighthouse has been a popular tourist destination for a long time thanks to the unbelievable views offered from this spot.

It’s also very affordable, costing only $5 to wander the local wildlife refuge and explore the lighthouse.

10. Limahuli Garden and Preserve

Last but not least comes the Limahuli Garden and Preserve, a gorgeous stop for anyone who loves tropical plant life. There are many exotic plants here that you probably won’t see anywhere else.
