Kauai Real Estate – A Slice Of Paradise
Friday, February 19th, 2010If you are thinking of purchasing real estate in Hawaii, Kauai offers a slice of paradise that you would find it very difficult to refuse. It is heavenly beyond belief and the perfect spot if you are seeking natural beauty difficult to compare with anywhere else on earth. It offers scenery to meet anybody’s needs, and enables you to find exactly what you want for your heaven on earth. Here are six beautiful choices for you:
The Alakai Wilderness Preserve: This is a beautiful area of Kauai that is also known by the locals as Alaka’i swamp. While it’s not a real swamp, it is more of a preserve consisting of natural bogs found here. Alaka’i is near Mount Wai’ale’ale, one Earth’s wettest areas, which is shrouded in fog most of the time. The Alakai Wilderness Preserve is a great place for a hike at any time of the day.
Hanalei Bay: This is a fabulous bay with about three miles of beautiful beach. Situated on Kauai’s North Shore, Hanalei is a small town that sits about half way along the bay taking its name (or is it the other way round?), and is very friendly and a great place to live. The real estate here is either in the town or on the bay, and offers some great scenery. If you surf or dive, the bay is crystal clear and flat in summer, but offers high surf in winter. A great place to live or even for a vacation home.
Ke’e Beach: This is one of the most beautiful areas on Kauai and is reached by a small foot path. Ke’e Beach sits in the Na Pali Coast State Park and is calm and shallow making it a great place to take the family. Be careful venturing further out beyond the protective reef, as the currents outside the reef can be strong. Anyone would love to live near Ke’e Beach and residential property is close by so you can enjoy this beach any time you want.
Limahuli Garden and Preserve: This is an area of Kauai that you will love if you like scenery, and find walking and hiking relaxing. This area was given the top award by the Hawaiian Tourism Authority and has also been given the award for the best botanical garden in the USA. It offers some of the most spectacular gardens you will ever see, and is also a nature preserve. The photographic opportunities here are peerless, and there are plenty of Realtors in the area that will sell you a piece of land here: you can own your own piece of heaven on earth, because that’s what this Kauai Real Estate is. Sheer heaven!
Wailua River State Park: While this state park is the place to go for canoeing and kayaking, it’s also home to one of the most beautiful waterfalls on Kauai -Opaeka’a Falls. This 150-foot waterfall offers breathtaking views from miles around and the Wailua Homesteads, a neighborhood affording fabulous views of the falls and river, is home to popular real estate in Kauai.
Waimea Canyon State Park: Although the continental US has the Grand Canyon, Kauai has the Waimea Canyon. Formed by a volcano millions of years ago, this canyon is filled with lush forests, beautiful rivers and waterfalls, wonderful flora and fauna and is the habitat of rare and endangered birds found only on Kauai. Located on the West Side of Kauai, Waimea Canyon is convenient to historic Waimea town and the Kekaha beach community.
And that’s it. Six fabulous reasons to own Kauai real estate. They don’t have casinos and they don’t offer golf courses or tourist attractions other than those that Mother Nature created herself. There are many more lovely homes in Kauai you might prefer, but these are some of the best if you enjoy sheer natural beauty.
