Purchasing Kauai real estate offers you the opportunity to live in your own piece of heaven that offers everything you could wish for in natural beauty. If you are looking for the thrill and excitement that a large city can offer then go elsewhere, because real estate on Kauai offers you tranquility and the chance to get away from big cities, and just relax and appreciate life. Here are six reasons why:
The Alakai Wilderness Preserve: You sure wouldn’t associate this place with paradise, but to many people it is. Born out of one of the earth’s wettest areas, the fog-shrouded Mount Wai’ale’ale, this is an area of natural bogs that is great to explore at any time. The locals call it Alakai swamp, and it is a reserve for many rare birds and plants. Who knows – you might find an undiscovered species!
Hanalei Bay: This is a fabulous bay with about three miles of beautiful beach. Situated on Kauai’s North Shore, Hanalei is a small town that sits about half way along the bay taking its name (or is it the other way round?), and is very friendly and a great place to live. The real estate here is either in the town or on the bay, and offers some great scenery. If you surf or dive, the bay is crystal clear and flat in summer, but offers high surf in winter. A great place to live or even for a vacation home.
Ke’e Beach: This is one of the most beautiful areas on Kauai and is reached by a small foot path. Ke’e Beach sits in the Na Pali Coast State Park and is calm and shallow making it a great place to take the family. Be careful venturing further out beyond the protective reef, as the currents outside the reef can be strong. Anyone would love to live near Ke’e Beach and residential property is close by so you can enjoy this beach any time you want.
Limahuli Garden and Preserve: For any outdoors person who loves hiking and some breathtaking natural views, this preserve is where you want to be. You’ll find that it lives up to the awards that it has won – such as the best natural botanical garden in the US – and you won’t want to miss anything here when you hike. There are residential areas nearby that have homes and vacant land you can purchase from which to enjoy the views and wonders of Limahuli Gardens.
Wailua River State Park: This park is home to some of the most gorgeous scenery to be found on Kauai and to great outdoor sports such as kayaking and canoeing. You will find magnificent views here such as the 150-foot Opaeka’a Falls, a breathtaking waterfall you simply have to see to believe. There are a couple of residential neighborhoods surrounding the park from which to enjoy the area’s natural beauty and river activities.
Waimea Canyon State Park: No matter if you love the Grand Canyon or not, you will love Waimea Canyon. Made by a massive volcano, the canyon was formed from runoff water over millions of years. The best part is that the canyon is beautifully green year round, so you can always enjoy the breathtaking views, no matter which area of the canyon you are on.
For anyone wanting to enjoy the true Hawaiian beauty that Kauai offers – these are six great places to start. Of course, there are some other areas around the island you’ll want to check out also, to make sure you find the perfect place to call home on Kauai.
