Must do is a Raft Trip to see the Na Pali Coast and visit any of the gorgeous beaches!  Went to the Fern Grotto a couple weeks ago.  The 1992 hurricane wiped out much of the ferns and it s not as lush as it use to be.  Still amazing.
Johannah said: The whole island is wonderful, the people are so friendly.  If you go to Kauai once, you will want to go back.  We visited Polihale State Park , and have done hiking, kayaking, sightseeing, and laying on the beach.  My only advice is stay long enough to see the island. Don t stay the whole time on the south shore or the north shore.  You have to see east and west as well to really appreciate the beauty and serenity of Kauai.
Anthony said: Hiking some of the trails is an absolute must. The real lasting impressions are from the island s interior, not the coasts. And since you are all frugal keep in mind that all parks and trails are free.  You do sure need to be in good physical condition.  For sure Wrangler s Steak House in Waimea.  Absolutely do: the Kuilau Trail , and the Pihea/Ala disneyland resort hotel kai Swamp Trail if in real good physical condition.
Dani said: Recommend staying on Poipu Beach , taking a trip to Spouting Horn , and Kayaking or Boating to the Napali Coast .  We only saw the coast from inland and that was breathtaking.   Definitely recommend ziplining at Kauai Backcountry Adventures , staff and grounds were amazing.  Oh and make a trip to head over to Puka Dogs for the best hot dogs you ve ever had.  Aloha.
