Join us on an unforgettable first-class Eco Adventure over the breathtaking Garden Isle of Kauai. You’ll soar in the incredible new American Eurocopter ECO-Star, a state-of-the-art marvel that offers 23% more interior room, individual Business Class style seats, two-way communication with your pilot, and expansive glass windows for outstanding sweeping views of Kauai’s incomparable natural beauty.
Your journey begins with a flight over the spectacular Hanapepe Valley, where lush greenery and dramatic landscapes set the tone for your adventure. From there, we continue to the iconic Mana Waiapuna, famously known as “Jurassic Park Falls,” where you can marvel at the cascading waters that have graced the silver screen.
Next, we ascend the majestic Olokele Canyon, a hidden gem with its rugged cliffs and verdant foliage. Our adventure then takes us to the awe-inspiring Waimea Canyon, often referred to as the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific,” where you’ll witness the vast, colorful expanse of this natural wonder.
As we approach the coast, the sculptural masterpiece of the Na Pali Coastline comes into view, with its towering sea cliffs and emerald valleys. The journey continues past the stunning Bali Hai Cliffs, a sight that will leave you in awe, and over the pristine blue waters of Hanalei Bay, where the picturesque Princeville Resort area lies.
Finally, weather permitting, we reach the crowning glory of the Garden Isle: Mt. Wai’ale’ale. Known as the wettest spot on earth, with an average annual rainfall of 450 – 500 inches, flying into the center of this crater is a truly awe-inspiring experience. Surrounded by 5000-foot walls and 3000-foot waterfalls, this is the grand finale of your ECO adventure over Kauai.
The approximate flight time for this incredible journey is 45 minutes.
