Kauai Real Estate Is A Great Choice
March 10, 2010 by Jason58
Purchasing Kauai real estate offers you the opportunity to live in your own piece of heaven that offers everything you could wish for in natural beauty. If you are looking for the thrill and excitement that a large city can offer then go elsewhere, because real estate on Kauai offers you tranquility and the chance to get away from big cities, and just relax and appreciate life. Here are six reasons why:
The Alakai Wilderness Preserve: For anyone that loves a great hike, this is the area to do it. It’s also known as the Alaka’i swamp because of the bogs that are native to this area of Hawaii. And, since the preserve is located on the plateau that sits on Mount Wai’ale’ale, you will find that it really lives up to being one of the wettest places on Earth. Almost constantly covered in a misty cloud, it’s very mysterious and romantic at the same time.
Hanalei Bay: The largest bay on Kauai’s North Shore where you’ll find over two miles of beautiful beach back dropped by lush, green mountains and waterfalls. For those who love a wonderful small town with beautiful scenery you will want to visit the town of Hanalei, which sits mid-point of the bay. You will find some breathtaking real estate both in the town area as well as on the bay itself.
Ke’e Beach: This is one of the most beautiful areas on Kauai and is reached by a small foot path. Ke’e Beach sits in the Na Pali Coast State Park and is calm and shallow making it a great place to take the family. Be careful venturing further out beyond the protective reef, as the currents outside the reef can be strong. Anyone would love to live near Ke’e Beach and residential property is close by so you can enjoy this beach any time you want.
Limahuli Garden and Preserve: Love a good hike through some of the most spectacular gardens and nature preserves that Hawaii has to offer? The Limahuli Garden and Preserve offers just that. With awards such as the best natural botanical garden in the US and the top award from the Hawaii Tourism Authority, who could ask for a better place to enjoy the day, some photography, or just a walk in the Hawaiian sunshine? Want to find some Kauai real estate near this beautiful park? You won’t have a problem here, and there are a number of local-area Realtors who will help you.
Wailua River State Park: This park is home to some of the most gorgeous scenery to be found on Kauai and to great outdoor sports such as kayaking and canoeing. You will find magnificent views here such as the 150-foot Opaeka’a Falls, a breathtaking waterfall you simply have to see to believe. There are a couple of residential neighborhoods surrounding the park from which to enjoy the area’s natural beauty and river activities.
Waimea Canyon State Park: Mark Twain called this ‘the Grand Canyon of Hawaii’, and while it has a long way to go to emulate the depth of that state feature, it contains a lot more natural wildlife and is more stunning to see. It has a massive volcano right in the center, which is what created the canyon originally, and the flowers, trees and rare birds it contains are found only on this island. It is more like Hawaii’s Galapagos than Grand Canyon, and if you purchase your Kauai Real Estate here, you will have something unique that none of your friends or relatives will have. A piece of nature and a piece of history: unique and original! How cool is that?
So there you are. The six most attractive sites offering Kauai real estate that you could find. Perhaps they don’t suit you, but you will look far and hard to find anywhere offering the same degree of natural beauty anywhere in the world.

where are you always hearing that? On one of beck's nonmedicated days?
OK, here's my whole list. Hurricanes generally don't get to Hawaaii, but they do sometimes have severe weather/storms like right now a lot of rain. Its hot in summers, like 90's, but pleasant the rest of the year.
The top things to do in Hawaii are:
1. Go to Pearl Harbor to see history at the US Arizona Memorial. You can drive or take the bus there; no need to book a tour. (Oahu Island)
2. If you are on the island of Oahu (where Honolulu and Waikiki beach is) go to the other side of the island to see the great deserted beaches (get a rental car for a day or two).
3. If you go to the Polynesian Cultural Center (Oahu) understand that its run by the Morman church and there are NO alcoholic beverages served there, not even beer. I say skip it and do a Luau instead.
4. If you go to Maui, you gotta do the downhill bike ride. I don't recommend the sunrise one because you have to get up at 3:00 AM to get started up the mountain and its cold up there that early. If you are a romantic do it, but otherwise no. There are different bike companies and some don't take you all the way to the top, and some don't guide you back down. You can come down by yourself, there's only one road with just a little traffic, but if you are squimish about riding in the street, a company that accompanys you down will help watch the traffic for you. I have been twice and prefer Maui Downhill to the others. These companies have web sites They will pick you up at your hotel, take you to their shop to pick out a wet-suit (for the cold and mist/rain shower maybe) and gloves and helmet; then take you up the mountain; then follow your group down so they can block traffic for your ride; then afterwards take you back to your hotel. Expect this activity to take 75-80% or more of the day.
4. Also in Maui, The Road to Hana is a great drive (you need a rental car). Its a 30 mile winding road that takes 4 hours to drive. Its like driving through the jungle; has a bunch of one lane bridges.
5. On the Big Island of Hawaii: go to the Volcano National Park. Also go see Akaka Falls.

I used to sneak out of Hartford High school (circa 1970) at noon and with brown bag lunch in hand, wonder over to the Twain house and sit on the porch and dream a little before going back into school.
