We saw the Na Pali park on a Blue Ocean zodiac boat tour that went up and down the coast in a morning. The cliffs are enormous and you lose all sense of perspective looking up at them from the water…Full review by BrandonK850

Kuaui is such a special place! I would absolutely recommend taking a boat tour with NaPali Experience. They are a small boat company, limited to 6 people, and they literally take you INTO the caves and UNDER the waterfalls along the coast! And if that's not enough, you also get time to snorkel with turtles. One of the best experiences we have had as a family! Enjoy your trip!

October 2018 Update: Nāpali Coast State Wilderness Park (including the Kalalau Trail) on Kauai are still closed due to flood damage as well as the highway and bridges which access the parks. This includes the first two miles of the trail. The whole trail is inaccessible & closed for hikers and/or kayakers. Repairs to the damaged roads and trail are in process and expected to last at least into January of 2019. With additional storms events (Lane, Olivia), and additional damage discovered as they do repairs has caused a reevaluation of the repair time. The roads and trail could be closed into mid-2019.
