During our stay at the Hanalei Bay Resort, we enjoyed a well-appointed condo with a stunning view of the bay. Our first visit was to Limahuli Garden, a 17-acre botanical paradise showcasing Polynesian and indigenous Hawaiian plants, set against impressive volcanic mountains. We explored trails featuring educational signage about local flora and noticed the restored taro terraces from Polynesian times. At Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge, we admired the historic lighthouse and observed thousands of migratory birds, including nesting Red-footed Boobies. Our Kaua’i adventure also included stops at Hā’ena Beach, Maniniholo Dry Cave, and ‘Ōpaekaa Falls.
