Virtual Tour of Kauai

by ALOHA DEAN

Just outside Kilauea town is the Guava Kai Plantation, a real, working guava farm. Stop in to their gift shop for a sip or three of refreshing ice cold guava juice, and load up on tropical jams, jellies, and syrup as gifts for when you return home. Heading toward the west, we come to the Princeville Resort. Situated on a high volcanic bench overlooking the sea, Princeville is a complete resort community with hotels, condominiums, shopping, and recreation. At the head of Hanalei Bay is the broad valley of the Hanalei River. Across the road from Princeville you'll find a nice viewpoint for this valley, which serves as a wildlife sanctuary and is known for its taro production.
