Breathtaking Areas In Kauai Real Estate You Don't Want To Miss by Ellen Gentry

If you are considering purchasing Kauai real estate, there are some lush, beautiful areas that you just cannot miss when you are searching for your dream property. From beautiful beaches to lush forests, Kauai offers something for everyone. Check out these six areas on Kauai before you decide on any one spot:
The Alakai Wilderness Preserve: For anyone that loves a great hike, this is the area to do it. It's also known as the Alaka'i swamp because of the bogs that are native to this area of Hawaii. And, since the preserve is located on the plateau that sits on Mount Wai'ale'ale, you will find that it really lives up to being one of the wettest places on Earth. Almost constantly covered in a misty cloud, it's very mysterious and romantic at the same time.
Hanalei Bay: Those that are looking for tropical Kauai real estate need look no further than Hanalei Bay. This is the biggest bay that lies on the island and is located on the North Shore. With over two beautiful miles of soft, sandy beaches for you to enjoy, you will love the green mountain backdrop that surrounds the area. And, with the beautiful town of Hanalei right in the middle of the area, you'll find some of the most gorgeous real estate in the world.
Ke'e Beach: Voted by the islanders as one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, it's also a great place to enjoy with the family. While you can only reach it by foot path, it is known for having no currents, no waves, and extremely shallow water - which make it the perfect family spot. But, be careful, those that venture further out into the reefs can get caught in the currents on the outskirts of the bay. Want to find some beautiful Kauai real estate close by? There are miles of wonderful areas that you can call your own.
Limahuli Garden and Preserve: For any outdoors person who loves hiking and some breathtaking natural views, this preserve is where you want to be. You'll find that it lives up to the awards that it has won - such as the best natural botanical garden in the US - and you won't want to miss anything here when you hike. There are residential areas nearby that have homes and vacant land you can purchase from which to enjoy the views and wonders of Limahuli Gardens.
Wailua River State Park: For anyone into kayaking or canoeing, who loves hiking and massive, 150-foot waterfalls, this is the park for you. Wailua River is Hawaii's only navigable rive and home to Opaeka'a Falls, which can be seen for miles. There are several residential areas close by from which to enjoy all this state park offers throughout the year.
Waimea Canyon State Park: No matter if you love the Grand Canyon or not, you will love Waimea Canyon. Made by a massive volcano, the canyon was formed from runoff water over millions of years. The best part is that the canyon is beautifully green year round, so you can always enjoy the breathtaking views, no matter which area of the canyon you are on.
For anyone wanting to enjoy the true Hawaiian beauty that Kauai offers - these are six great places to start. Of course, there are some other areas around the island you'll want to check out also, to make sure you find the perfect place to call home on Kauai.
