Exploring this verdant island over 7 to 10 days would be the ideal option for any traveler wishing to enjoy Kauai’s very relaxed atmosphere and the natural gems it has to offer. In my opinion, renting a car and taking day trips<\/i> from Princeville (a charming town in the far north) or staying in a hotel near Poipu or Lihue (further south) allows you to set foot on some of the island’s most beautiful beaches and to easily explore some of its most magnificent spots.<\/p>\n

Considering that Honolulu is the main point of entry to the turquoise archipelago, I personally flew with Air Canada<\/b>, stopping in Vancouver (YVR) on my way from Montreal (YUL), before taking a short flight on Hawaiian Airlines <\/b>to Kauai (Lihue airport).<\/p>\n

My American Express®<\/sup>* Aeroplan®<\/sup> Reserve Card<\/a> gives me access to airport lounges, free baggage check-in and priority boarding, all for less, and I’m a die-hard Air Canada fan! However, other airlines such as United<\/b> allow you to depart from Montreal (YUL) and stop only in San Francisco (SFO), among others.<\/p>\n

According to Air Canada’s points predictor, a Montreal\/Honolulu economy class ticket starts at 17,500 Aeroplan points<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\nSo, at Lihue airport, everything went quickly and smoothly: 20 minutes after landing, we were already on our way! <\/p>\n

Exploring the winding road to Waimea Canyon is an unforgettable adventure! Start with a stop at Japanese Grandma’s Cafe<\/b> for the best sushi on the island; a culinary experience that will delight your taste buds. Then pause at the Red Dirt Waterfall<\/b> for a breathtaking view of the south coast.<\/p>\n

The highlight of the show, of course, is the Waimea Canyon Lookout<\/b>, from which you can contemplate the geological marvel known as the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific”. With its colourful cliffs and breathtaking panoramas, it’s sure to be a sight to behold! If you’re still thirsty for adventure, push on to Kalalau Lookout<\/b> for a spectacular view of part of the Na Pali Coast, another awe-inspiring landscape.<\/p>\n

With this excursion to Waimea Canyon and K\u014dke\u02bbe National Park<\/a>, you’ll explore the wonders of northwest Kauai.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401679,401681,401707,401709″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Watch the sunset at Hideaway Lookout” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”watch_the_sunset_at_hideaway_lookout”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

It was while chatting with my Airbnb<\/a> host that I got this nice little tip: one of the best places to watch the sun go down is called Hideaway Lookout<\/b>. You could park your car at the Hideaway Pizza Pub<\/a>, just a few minutes’ walk away, and come and relax at the most intimate of lookouts. Once the show is over, return to the restaurant where you parked for a bite to eat. It’s all set up for a great evening!<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401689,401691,401693″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Enjoy all that Tunnels Beach has to offer!” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”enjoy_all_that_tunnels_beach_has_to_offer_”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Tunnels Beach<\/b> is a true natural splendor! Here, you can swim alongside graceful sea turtles and watch seals basking on the shore. The beach also offers breathtaking views of the start of the Na Pali Coast. Finally, snorkelling is particularly impressive at Tunnels Beach, as you can observe the famous “tunnels” formed by lava underwater, revealing a fascinating and completely unique underwater world! For me, of all the islands, this is my favorite beach.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401683,401685,401687,401715,401719″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Discover deserted yet splendid beaches!” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”discover_deserted_yet_splendid_beaches_”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

What’s absolutely disconcerting, and delightful, about the island of Kauai is the fact that many beaches stretch for miles, and some are almost deserted! Such is the case of Secret Beach and Larsen’s Beach. These two beaches are well worth a visit if you’re tired of the crowded beaches in the south of the island.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401755,401757,401759,401761″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Following in Captain Jack Sparrow's footsteps at Makauwahi Cave” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”following_in_captain_jack_sparrow_039_s_footsteps_at_makauwahi_cave”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Kauai, with its breathtaking scenery, has been used as a film location for many Hollywood movies, including “Pirates of the Caribbean 4”. Film buffs can follow in the footsteps of the famous Captain Jack Sparrow by visiting Makauwahi Cave<\/b>. A short hike takes you along the beach to a breathtaking grotto! To explore this nature reserve is to plunge into the world of a classic film while strolling through a cinematic setting in its own right.<\/p>\n

This tour will take you to several of Kauai’s filming locations<\/a>.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401721,401723,401725,401727″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Discover Poipu Beach Park” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”discover_poipu_beach_park”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

On Kauai’s South Coast, Poipu Beach Park is the ideal place to stroll and swim. This magnificent sandy beach is a veritable paradise, often frequented by sea turtles, which you can observe from up close. After a day of relaxation, treat yourself to a meal at Brennecke’s Beach Boiler<\/a>, where you can enjoy breathtaking sea views.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401729,401731,401733″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Secluding yourself in the Queen's Bath (at your own risk)” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”secluding_yourself_in_the_queen_039_s_bath_at_your_own_risk_”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Queen’s Bath<\/b> consists of a number of fascinating natural formations, made up of crevices and holes in the rocks that fill with water at low tide. Every time a wave crashes onto the shore, water is projected into these cavities, creating unique natural “baths”. The 15-minute hike up is steep and can be slippery, and a sign warns visitors that they venture up at their own risk. Despite the steep path, Queen’s Bath offers an extraordinary experience and, quite literally, a direct connection to the power of nature.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401737,401739,401741,401743,401745,401747″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Cruise the Na Pali Coast” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”cruise_the_na_pali_coast”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

The Na Pali Coast is Kauai’s must-see, famous for its towering cliffs and lush valleys. There are several options for enjoying the immensity of this magnificent coastline, including hiking and excursions by helicopter or small plane. <\/p>\n

Don’t hesitate to fly over the Na Pali Coast and the whole of Kauai<\/a> to admire the island’s breathtaking panoramas.<\/p>\n

Personally, I opted for a catamaran excursion, a costly experience – between $400 and $500 per person – but a truly memorable one. Sailing along the Na Pali Coast on a catamaran offers a unique perspective on this natural wonder, with breathtaking views of rock formations, waterfalls and marine life – dolphins in this case!<\/p>\n

You could choose this Na Pali Coast snorkeling trip<\/a> from Port Allen aboard a catamaran, or get away from it all with this Na Pali Coast sunset sailing trip<\/a> with dinner.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401695,401697,401699,401701,401703,401705″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Enjoy the ambience of Princeville and Hanalei” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”enjoy_the_ambience_of_princeville_and_hanalei”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

To get the most out of Kauai, be sure to visit Hanalei and Princeville. These charming towns are packed with markets selling local produce, perfect for discovering the island’s flavours and crafts. Hanalei beach is particularly fantastic at sunset, offering breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. For coffee lovers, a stop at Trilogy Coffee<\/a> is a must: it’s one of the best on the island!<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401711,401713,401717,401735,401749,401751,401753,401763″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_custom_heading text=”Visit Kauai's unusual Hindu Monastery” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” css=”” el_id=”visit_kauai_039_s_unusual_hindu_monastery”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

The Hindu Monastery on Kauai is probably the most unusual visit I’ve ever made. Nestled in a peaceful green setting, this sacred site offers a unique and soothing spiritual experience. Strolling through its lush gardens and admiring the architecture, a visit to Kauai’s Hindu Monastery is a memorable getaway, and well off the beaten track!<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”401765,401767″ img_size=”large” onclick=”” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

You could also try a zip-line adventure in Kauai<\/a>, and enjoy a buffet dinner with open bar and Luau Kalamaku show<\/a>.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Kauai, Hawaii – Where to stay with points?” css=”” el_id=”kauai_hawaii_-_where_to_stay_with_points_”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Staying in a hotel in the archipelago, no matter which island you visit or what time of year it is, can be quite expensive!<\/p>\n

For my part, having already used my points and my free night certificate obtained with my Marriott Bonvoy®<\/sup> American Express®<\/sup>* Card<\/a>, I opted to stay in two small apartments unearthed on the AirBnb<\/a> platform.<\/p>\n

Both were located in Princeville, which was my headquarters for the duration of my trip! That said, the resorts are closer to Poipu and Lihue and, whether in terms of points or money, you need to be on the lookout for promotions to get the best prices, as your stay could be very expensive.<\/p>\n

If I had to choose one island in the Hawaiian archipelago, it would definitely be Kauai for its lushness and unrivalled beauty. Tunnels Beach was a real favorite, with its fascinating underwater scenery and idyllic setting. Also, hiking through Kauai’s breathtaking landscapes is simply dazzling, offering breathtaking views and total immersion. Finally, the island’s warm and welcoming atmosphere adds an extra dimension to this unique experience, making Kauai a must-see destination.<\/p>\n
