Kauai
Northern most and geologically oldest of the eight major islands, Kauai is without question the most beautiful of the Hawaiian Islands. Famous for its movie-set locations (Blue Hawaii, South Pacific, Jurassic Park), the island abounds with a myriad of exotic flowers, scenic valleys, clear waterfalls and majestic sea cliffs. Kauai contains three resort areas. Poipu is located on the southern coast and offers the best weather on the island. On the island's eastern coast, Kapaa and Wailua offer a variety of accommodations and contain most of the island's shopping and dining options. Further north is Hanalei, with its famous bay (home of Puff the Magic Dragon), and the Princeville Resort area, known for its extraordinary scenery and lush tropical surroundings.
