Helicopter Rides Over Kauai



by Dean Prater


Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands might be the most underrated vacation spots in the United States. Much less developed when compared to neighboring Oahu and Maui, Kauai is an unspoiled hidden treasure. Despite its small size, the island delivers a wide range of landscapes. The area features pristine beaches, high rising cliffs, museums with intriguing artifacts and a creative mixture of fantastic food, music and hula. Apart from beautiful waterfalls, mountains, gardens and museums, this spot also offers some exceptional adventures for vacationers. Some options include:

A Tour of Blair Estate

Cigars and Coffee, much like wine, are things to be valued. At Kapaa, Kauai you could take a tour of Blair Estate and understand all about the operations, which in due course result in your favorite coffee or cigar. The lush estate is spread over five acres, which includes two acres of tobacco and three acres of coffee plantations. As outlined by an article in the Star Advertiser, the estate recently celebrated its 10th anniversary. Here visitors get a one of a kind opportunity to take a look at everything, right from the tending of coffee and tobacco plants all the way to the manufacturing of the final products.

The guided tour features a walk through the organic farms during which guests are presented details about harvesting coffee and procedures of pulping, drying, fermenting, classifying and roasting coffee. Cigar buffs will love the next part of the tour in which visitors are given details about harvesting tobacco and ways in which leaves in different parts of the tobacco plant are used for different purposes in a cigar. Overall the tour is highly recommended for coffee and cigar lovers.

Helicopter Ride over Kauai Region

If you're in an adventurous mood, you'll be able to take a helicopter ride for a bird's eye view of this delightful area. A considerable part of the diverse terrain of this location is inaccessible and so the only method to discover these areas is through a helicopter. The ride gives a close view of stunning canyons, waterfalls, valleys, mountains, shorelines along with forested acres of the region. Typical highlights of the majority of Kauai helicopter tours, which last for about an hour, consist of the famous Jurassic Park Falls, the Waimea Canyon, the Hanapepe Valley, the Menehune Fish Pond, the Hanalei Valley, the Wailua Falls, Mt. Waialeale, the Na Pali Coast and Nawlliwili Harbour. Various companies also offer doors off helicopter tours, which not only provide breathtaking views, but also permit you to take some wonderful photos. A helicopter ride over Kauai is surely an experience you aren't likely to forget.

Kauai also provides some fantastic lodging options, which is important for an enjoyable trip. If you're looking for a luxurious and relaxing place to stay with your family, you can choose a bluegreen vacation at Pono Kai Resort. The banana, papaya and palm trees, inviting vegetable and herb gardens, as well as Japanese gardens at the resort instantly takes you to a tropical paradise. You can unwind by the pool, take a stroll on the golden sands or soak yourselves in the aqua blue waters of the ocean only a few steps away from the resort.
