Hawaii has long been deemed as a magical, one of a kind, and versatile destination. The distinguishing factors that separate Hawaii from any other state within the United States are vast. From the tropical landscapes, warm climate, vibrant and colorful society, and many accommodations for any type of traveler, Hawaii has something for everyone. While there are a handful of islands that make up the state of Hawaii, there is one that stands out among the rest.
What is the best island in Hawaii?
Covered in an abundant and lush tropical landscape that the other islands of Hawaii can't compare to, Kauai has earned the nickname "Garden Isle". The island of Kauai takes an already beautiful landscape to the next level with towering cliffs, canyons, trails, and glistening waters.
