For anyone looking at buying property in Hawaii, especially on the island of Kauai, there are numerous areas that hold wonders many tourists never take the time to see. So, to help you in finding outstanding Kauai real estate, here are six locations in Kauai that you have to see to believe:

The Alakai Wilderness Preserve: For anyone that loves a great hike, this is the area to do it. It’s also known as the Alaka’i swamp because of the bogs that are native to this area of Hawaii. And, since the preserve is located on the plateau that sits on Mount Wai’ale’ale, you will find that it really lives up to being one of the wettest places on Earth. Almost constantly covered in a misty cloud, it’s very mysterious and romantic at the same time.

Hanalei Bay: Those that are looking for tropical Kauai real estate need look no further than Hanalei Bay. This is the biggest bay that lies on the island and is located on the North Shore. With over two beautiful miles of soft, sandy beaches for you to enjoy, you will love the green mountain backdrop that surrounds the area. And, with the beautiful town of Hanalei right in the middle of the area, you’ll find some of the most gorgeous real estate in the world.

Ke’e Beach: Voted by the islanders as one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, it’s also a great place to enjoy with the family. While you can only reach it by foot path, it is known for having no currents, no waves, and extremely shallow water – which make it the perfect family spot. But, be careful, those that venture further out into the reefs can get caught in the currents on the outskirts of the bay. Want to find some beautiful Kauai real estate close by? There are miles of wonderful areas that you can call your own.

Limahuli Garden and Preserve: This is an area of Kauai that you will love if you like scenery, and find walking and hiking relaxing. This area was given the top award by the Hawaiian Tourism Authority and has also been given the award for the best botanical garden in the USA. It offers some of the most spectacular gardens you will ever see, and is also a nature preserve. The photographic opportunities here are peerless, and there are plenty of Realtors in the area that will sell you a piece of land here: you can own your own piece of heaven on earth, because that’s what this Kauai Real Estate is. Sheer heaven!

Wailua River State Park: While this state park is the place to go for canoeing and kayaking, it’s also home to one of the most beautiful waterfalls on Kauai -Opaeka’a Falls. This 150-foot waterfall offers breathtaking views from miles around and the Wailua Homesteads, a neighborhood affording fabulous views of the falls and river, is home to popular real estate in Kauai.

Waimea Canyon State Park: Although the continental US has the Grand Canyon, Kauai has the Waimea Canyon. Formed by a volcano millions of years ago, this canyon is filled with lush forests, beautiful rivers and waterfalls, wonderful flora and fauna and is the habitat of rare and endangered birds found only on Kauai. Located on the West Side of Kauai, Waimea Canyon is convenient to historic Waimea town and the Kekaha beach community.

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.
