Kauai is located at the northern end of the Island of Hawai'i, is the fourth largest island in the archipelago, and is also a geologically ancient island. Years of erosion by wind and rain have left the mountains rounded and lush. The island is covered in dense tropical rainforests and crisscrossed by river valleys, with waterfalls hidden within, earning it the nickname "Garden Isle." The Waimea Canyon on the west side is known as the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific," with reddish-brown rock walls layered with green vegetation; the Na Pali Coast on the north shore is famous for its nearly vertical, emerald-green sea cliffs. Roads do not reach this area, so to experience it up close, you can only take a boat, a helicopter, or hike the Kalalau Trail. Mount Waialeale in the center of the island has abundant rainfall and is one of the wettest places on Earth, giving rise to valleys full of rainforests and chains of waterfalls. The movie "Jurassic Park" was also filmed on the island. The island offers activities across sea, land, and air: taking a helicopter to overlook the canyons and sea cliffs is a signature local experience, offering views of waterfalls inaccessible by land; kayaking on the Wailua River to the Fern Grotto, cycling slowly along the east coast bike paths, snorkeling at Poipu Beach, or experiencing ziplining and horseback riding in the lush valleys are all well-established activities on the island.Kauai · 21.9 km from Koloa

Pop Beach Park is located on the southern tip of Kauai and is one of the most famous beaches on Kauai. The beach is not overly commercialized, with crystal clear waters and clean sand. In addition, there are only 1,000 Hawaiian monk seals left in the world living here. They will lie lazily on the beach to rest or swim in the sea.Poipu · 1.5 km from downtown

A beach park with a particularly good view. Although there are many people, it is large in area, so it doesn't look crowded. There are many water entertainment projects in Pop Beach Park, and diving activities are also possible here.
