Ultimate Kauai Helicopter Tour Features
Hanapepe Valley
Hanapepe Valley is a lush, fertile area where many tropical fruits and vegetables thrive. Among the crops grown here are bananas, sugar cane, sweet potatoes, and of course, kalo (taro), from which the Hawaiian staple dish “poi” is made. In addition to agriculture, Hanapepe was also known for its salt ponds. Salt was an important commodity for trade with sailors and the right to harvest salt from these ponds was passed down through Hawaiian families. Today, Hanapepe Valley continues to be a vibrant and thriving community.
Manawaiopuna Falls
If you’re a fan of the movie Jurassic Park, then you’ll want to check out the Manawaiopuna Falls. This is the 400 foot tall waterfall that was featured in the background of the 1993 classic film. Although the falls are located on privately owned land, there are several helicopter companies that offer tours to see the falls up close. This is the only way to see the falls, as there is no other public access to the property.
Mount Wai‘ale’ale
If you’re looking to snap a picture of Mount Wai’ale’ale, be prepared for some challenges. The mountain is almost always shrouded in clouds, making it one of the wettest locations on Earth. Each year, the summit receives about 450 inches of rain. The record-setting year so far was 1982, with 683 inches of rain. But don’t let that deter you! With some patience and planning, you can get that perfect shot.
