From the Grand Canyon of the Pacific to spouting lava tubes, Kauai’s natural wonders are yours to cherish. Like the Pilgrims’ Plymouth Rock, Waimea is the site where the British explorer Captain James Cook first landed in the Hawaiian Islands. The highlight of your tour is the spectacular Waimea Canyon - the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific.” Running north to south on Kauai’s western border, this magnificent canyon was formed by whipping winds, pelting rain, and the incessant grinding of streams and rivulets that chiseled the red bedrock to depths of 3,600 feet and expanses of 10 miles.
Other highlights include: Koloa Town, where the first sugar plantation was founded in 1835, and Spouting Horn, a lava tube extending out to sea with its open mouth on the rocky shore. Watch as the wave action causes a spouting phenomenon that, depending on the surf conditions, can blow spumes high into the air.
