Kauai Kauai is as close as one can come to the fantasy world of "Bali Hai." The Garden Island, as it is nicknamed, is a tropical paradise blessed with a mild climate, wide sand beaches, and waterfall etched mountains. It is the oldest and most northerly of the Hawaiian Islands. It was the first of the Hawaiian Islands that Captain Cook visited and it was the last of Hawaii's independent kingdoms. The first successful sugar plantation was established here in 1835. Only on Kauai does the Mokihana berry grow and it was here that the legendary race of little people--the Menehune--flourished.
