Anywhere you turn in Kauai, a breathtaking view like this awaits you.

Kauai’s beauty is striking in a way that does not grow old.

For 10 straight days, I lost my breath every time we drove over a new hill to reveal a fresh expanse of green pasture against craggy mountain peaks, or the sun burst from behind a cloud to illuminate the canyons below. I could look at the same water crashing into the same line of rocks for hours and feel just as awestruck when we left as I did when we arrived.

I don’t know if you can ever “get used to” Kauai, only that I never even came close.

If you are looking for a special place to travel, I highly endorse Kauai, and I’d bet you my last sip of shaved ice that it will steal your heart, too.

To help with your vacation planning—whether it’s a mental, wishful one or you have actual plane tickets booked—here’s a recap of some of our favorite eats, sights, and activities.
