Curator’s statement

Kaua'i is a stunning island in Hawai'i and so diverse with a vast number of beaches, mountains and even a canyon! It is a very relaxed island and you are sure to feel right at home. The people are so friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing and the hiking is out of this world. The "Garden Island" is a wonderful place to visit if you are looking for a great mixture of relaxation and adventure!
