You can’t really appreciate Kauai’s beauty if you look at it from the ground. Kauai is one of those places in Hawaii that you really need to see from the sky. And you know what’s the fun part of this place? Almost 70% (and even more) of the island is inaccessible by land.

While exploring Kauai through the waters could be a time-consuming journey, a helicopter tour offers stunning aerial views that will leave you speechless, too, without taking much of your time. As we begin the tour, you’ll be flying over Manawaiopuna Falls, also known as the “Jurassic Park” falls. This beautiful waterfall is nestled in the Hanapepe Valley’s lush, green mountains.

Further, the flight takes you over the majestic Olokele and Waimea Canyon, which is often compared to the Grand Canyon, where you’ll spot majestic waterfalls from every direction. You’ll then experience the breathtaking Na Pali Coast, with its towering sea cliffs and turquoise waters of Hanalei Bay, before flying by the stunning Princeville Resort.

As you’re moving towards the end, and if the weather permits, we’ll then head to Mt. Wai’ale’ale, the second wettest place on Earth, where the vibrant green mountain is wrapped in mist, and waterfalls drop from 3,000 feet.

This entire journey will be covered in the Eco-Star helicopter that promises unbeatable comfort and views. This model has more cabin space, raised seating for better visibility, and modern technology for a smoother, quieter ride. With enhanced safety features and panoramic views, this is the ultimate way to explore Kauai from above.
