Everything to See & Do in Kauai, Hawaii

[@brianthebrute92]

I've lived here on Kauai all my life, its a little crazy right now with the virus situation, but still, no place I'd rather be then here on Kauai. Wailua Houselots 🤙🏼🌴🌊

[@inthedms82]

How's it crazy?

[@vanessabanuelos889]

What?! No chocolate tour?? GO BACK!! Lol. When I went to Kauai, 6 years ago, my husband (then boyfriend) took me to this fabulous chocolate tour, where we sampled some tropical fruits, saw cacao trees, the process of making chocolate AND sampled yummy chocolate. I guess that can be on the next Kauai video 😉. I think it was called Garden Island Chocolate for anyone interested.

[@Nelliejc]

I’d say the coffee tour is amazing too!

[@JettingJulia]

I LOVE Hawai’i! As a flight attendant the islands are my favorite layovers, I haven’t been to Kauai yet but am hoping to go! 🌸😍 safe travels!

[@jasonbabila6006]

What airline do you work for? AA has a daily sometimes two direct flights between PHX and LIH and I think two or maybe three daily flights between LAX and LIH, UAL has on daily between DEN and LIH, two or three between LAX and LIH, two daily between SFO and LIH, DAL has a daily between SEA and LIH, LAX and LIH, AK has multiple from the entire west coast to LIH, SWA has flights between Sacramento and Oakland to LIH.

[@flyingthenest]

yess we can totally see why!

[@JB-xk3gc]

I love watching yalls vlogs, inspires me to save up and travel with my husband and baby! 🤰🏽❤️

[@flyingthenest]

Ahh this makes me so happy!

[@jasonbabila6006]

That's my home island, I was born and raised there, I was raised in Hanamaulu and Wailua Homesteads.

[@flyingthenest]

oh wow what a beautiful place to grow up!

[@jasonbabila6006]

It is, it was so much better during the 70's and 80's when we had sugar cane fields all over the island and it wasn't as crowded back then, but the beaches are always great and so is the local food.🤙🏽 and my parents are still living on Kauai not far from where the very first Jurrasic Park movie was shot at and a few minutes from Opaeka'a falls and the old famous Coco Palms resort

Down side Hanamaulu 👍 . Definitely the best island to go to.

Kauai is truly paradise. I have been twice and look forward to going again. Didn’t do a helicopter, but did a plane tour and then the sunset dinner cruise and both a life changing beautiful.

[@laniesider2586]

How I miss Kauai so much!! The island that has great memories from my early childhood ( Wilcox elementary, Kauai Intermediate, and Kapa’a high school ). Life was simple back then, going to the beach, cruzin Friday night with friends and of course eating at Zippy’s restaurant that is open 24 hours. Kauai will forever have a special place in my heart ♥️ hoping to visit family soon.

[@EmilyClaireDaly]

WOW! I visited Kauai as a solo 18 year old traveller in my gap year and this is bringing back all the epic memories! Thankyou! 🙌🏼😄

[@OnwardMJ]

Another great video! This is definitely on our family travel list!

Kauai is one of my favorite places, but somewhere on the island it is always raining - finding the places where it isn't is such a part of the fun.

[@flyingthenest]

hahaha exactly!

[@HannahCobana]

Kekaha man. In Kekaha it's never raining lol

[@gloriainman4764]

We went to Kauai on our honeymoon back in 1996 and also when the Waimea Canyon and the Napali Coast. It was foggy at the lookout at Napali, but a couple days later we went on a catamaran and it was gorgeously breath taking. Definitely a place to go back to again.

[@coast2coastdogs]

lived in Kauai for a summer in High School and have visited. The Nepali coast boat ride is insane. Some of the craziest views ever!

[@fleur956]

I love the music used in this video!😍

[@kokoken1]

Now you know why Kauai is my favorite island, Jess and Stephen. I enjoy the Big Island, too, for the rugged reasons you mentioned, but "The Garden Isle" is always the one I love visiting again and again. Not too commercial, as Maui and Oahu are. And you hit the nail on the head regarding the weather -- north and east side, lush but rainy and a bit cooler, and south and west, dry and hot. Something for everyone. Please do go back to Kauai and spend more time. Glad you loved it.

[@marisa768]

Speaking as an American here - bagels might be the only thing we do right in this country lol you guys need to have some real NY bagels if you ever travel there in the future!! Best you'll get!

[@sightseeinginstyle8119]

I remember when we first visited Kauai, and took note of the chickens. Our taxi driver explained about them, and then made the dry comment that they don't just crow at sunrise, but all hours of the day and night. She cracked me up with her "we have international chickens here in Kauai, they all operate on different timezones!"

[@bridgetvogel1819]

Love Kauai! So cool how everyone can have quite different experiences. If you go back you must do the back country mountain tubing with Kauai Backcountry adventures!!

[@flyingthenest]

YES there were actually SO many activities we wanted to do but couldn't while pregnant so we deff have an excuse to come back!

[@MsSkipperkim]

We will be going to the same resort in September

I love Kaua'i. I went there in October and it was incredible!

[@emmamulley2379]

Gosh I miss Kauai! It stole my heart! Visited for the first time in 2018 and my now husband proposed to me at Waimea Canyon. Also the Napali coast is breathtaking and you're right that view of the coastline at the very top of Waimea canyon is stunning by helicopter.

We love Kauai!! We got to see the Na’ Pali by helicopter and boat, and I highly recommend both. The views literally rendered me speechless. We’re hoping to backpack part of the trail there next time! The chickens are great, and there are some wild pigs too that are fun to see. Such a good place, thanks for bringing back all my great Kauai memories!!

[@jaciboughter6762]

Hey guys! I luv this? I watched this yesterday and then read many nasty reviews. I wrote one I took down this morning where I was just flabbergasted and mad about what those idiots were saying. I didn’t do dive today, but when I came back I did see how much nice and cleaner reviews were. I appreciate your effort to keep your channel positive in all aspects. I know you two are so positive, but I appreciate the effort you take to keep these comments in the theme of how you run your channel? Thanks for sharing your experiences, being positive and all your hard work you do to create amazing videos and keep your channel a source of positivity! You’re highly appreciated!!!

[@suzycothran881]

IMPORTANT note for would-be Kauai travelers: the COVID restrictions are stricter here than any of the other islands. Be sure you understand the rules before you book your travel. They have 11 ICU beds here, so they can’t manage a major outbreak. It is worth the challenge to be in this beautiful place!

My friend owns Kolola Landing, it's the most beautiful resort I have ever stayed in while in Hawaii. The pools are amazing. 💗 beautiful video💗

[@emmadoyle5926]

You guys definitely need to go back after the baby is born! My husband and were there last year for our honeymoon and there is a trail from Kalalau lookout that goes straight out almost to the coast and the views are breathtaking. We also did a boat trip around the Napali Coast - swam with sea turtles and dolphins and also an unforgettable doors-off helicopter tour of the entire island. Love watching this and having all the memories flood back. I miss the acai bowls from Little Fish Coffee so much!

[@sarahmanning7198]

I was there for 2 weeks last year in October and visited the areas you show in your video. I agree that Kauai holds on to the old vibes of the 1950's era. The most delicious foods I had were: Wihlua shave ice/the volcano flavor, chocolate custard pie with coconut pudding layer and fresh grilled jumbo garlic prawns from a food truck in Hannalei (the purple sweet potato fries were also yummy).

Kaua’i AKA the garden isle. Our island is mostly green landscapes and have one of the wettest spots on earth, mt wai’ale’ale(i suggest to hike that). Thankyou for portraying Kaua’i so beautifully. Also i dont recommend flying in a helicopter on kauai (especially maverick company because of their issue with hawaiian salt beds). But i DEFINITELY suggest going on the boat ride for the nā pali coast. You’ll see whales, dolphins, turtles, and swim in clear open water etc. its amazing. Definitely go to polihale beach for an amazing sunset next time, its on the west side and west is usually more sunny 😊

[@raymondbarry4196]

@@flyingthenest Well you have to since you didn't get to see the NaPali Coast. Only 3 ways to see it, Helicopter, Boat or Hike (although hiking can be a dangerous 2 day excursion with steep drop-offs especially at crawlers ledge). I did the zodiac boat on my first trip, which was great but very bumpy but is the best way to get close in an personal like going into a cave where the ceiling has dropped in and created an island - so amazing. This past may we did a helicopter tour of the island with Island Helicopters and it was AMAZING. We stayed in Princeville on the north shore and there were baby albatross in our front yard of the house we rented. I hope you were able to see Tree Tunnel, if not put it on your list for your next visit. Not sure if you can tell I really like Kauai :)
