Kaua'i is the island that many people love to vacation on. If you are looking for a quiet laid-back tropical island, this is for you. You will find that Kaua'i with it's 2 main roads and one major shopping mall a haven. The beaches are plentiful and not as crowded as some on Maui, but the swimming is not as carefree. Both islands have their own personalities and I encourage you to visit both on the same trip so you can see the wonderful differences and have two vacations for the price of one airline ticket from the mainland. Cost of inter-island travel is under $100 each leg of the trip - and now you can fly out of Maui, Kaua'i, Oahu or the Big Island no matter which you fly into. Aloha and have the time of your life!
