Thrilling Flights Over Remote Area Provide Exhilarating Experience
One of Hawaii’s most thrilling adventures is a helicopter tour of the island of Kauai. Flying in one of these birds offers spectacular views of pristine beaches, gorgeous waterfalls, the stunning Waimea Canyon, and the rugged and remote Na Pali Coast—and then to top it all off you can see the truly unforgettable, waterfall-lined summit crater of Mt. Waialeale (weather permitting).
Hidden valleys and mountain peaks within the interior of this island can only be seen by helicopter because Kauai only has roads around the perimeter of the island.
Most Kauai helicopter tours circle the island taking in the three main attractions listed above—the Na Pali Coast, Waimea Canyon, and Mt. Waialeale—while also viewing the north shore’s white-sand beaches, and Wailua Falls on the east side.
There are also some abbreviated helicopter tours that are less expensive. Some tours stop at remote mountain sites, and one helicopter tour even visit the island of Niihau.
