Kauai

Small, round, and verdant, Kauai is appropriately called the "Garden Isle." Within her 33-mile length and 25-mile width, colors define Kauai: from the deep greens and purples at Princeville on the North Shore, to the yellow sand beaches on the Royal Coconut (west) coast, and the variegated gold tones at southerly Poipu beaches. By no small coincidence, those are the primary resort areas.
