Why See Kauai's Spectacular Sights?


Why is Kauai such an enchanting place for tourists? We give you 3 reasons why you should take our
Hawaii helicopter tour:
1. Napali Coast

Literally meaning “The Cliffs”, this rough yet beautiful shoreline northwest of Kauai stretches upward to 4,000 feet. See hanging valleys, narrow passages, towering cliffs tall waterfalls and secluded sea caves. Its historical and geographical uniqueness has made the Napali Coast one of the most visited places in Kauai. Because the Napali Coast is inaccessible by land, taking helicopter tours are recommended.
2. Mt. Waialeale

The scene-stealing Mt. Waialeale, meaning “Rippling Water”, sits at the center of Kauai. It is one of the highest peaks in Hawaii with its summit covered in clouds. Mt. Waialeale is considered “the wettest spot on earth”. When you take a helicopter ride, you can see rare plant and animal species thriving in its slopes. You can also see waterfalls cascading in the Mt. Waialeale Crater with our helicopter tours.
3. Waimea Canyon

Called “the Grand Canyon of the Pacific” by Mark Twain, Waimea Canyon stretches out at the west side of Kauai. It extends about ten miles long and up to more than 3,000 deep. The Waimea Canyon was formed through a series of volcanic eruptions and erosion caused by water currents sloping down Mt. Waialeale’s peak. Taking our helicopter tours will reveal secluded waterfalls and hiking trails.
