 Kauai offers numerous activites for people of all ages to enjoy. The Ultimate Kauai Guide Book can be a very useful tool in finding out what there is to see and do on this scenic island. There is also a lot of information on the Internet regarding things to do in Kauai. There are activities for every budget. Some of the more adventurous activities include ATV rides, helicopter rides and scuba diving. Another very popular activity is a boat trip along the spectacular Na Pali Coast, where majestic mountains rise over 3000 feet. (Plans are under way for a group trip one day during the Feast.) Other activities include snorkeling, hiking, biking, horseback riding, drive to Waimea Canyon and golfing. (We plan to set up a golf tournament for one afternoon during the Feast).
