Hawaii travelogue day 4 Kaua'i island

napali coast

Helicopter flight over Napali coast

We started the day with a MUST, a helicopter ride around Kaua'i island! The sky is clear although some clouds are already hidding the main summits. We dicover the wonderful white sandy beaches with turquoise waters, the great Napali coast where vegetation covered mountains look like sharply flutted cliffs as they meet the ocean. We then enter some craters in which numerous waterfalls litterally fall down fed on ever falling rains. This one hour tour is fantastic! Once landed, we picked ud the car and headed to the Northern coast to explore the beautiful beaches. On our way we stopped at Kilauea lighthouse and walked a little bit of the Kalalau trail. This 11 miles trail leads through the Napali coast. It is a very demanding trail, that's why we only walked a few miles, but the sight is really worth it.
Among the most beautiful beaches are Lumahai, Hanalei and Ke'e.
