When considering purchasing Kauai real estate, there are some areas that are just downright beautiful to the point that it can be hard to choose where to buy. But, depending on what type of scenery you love, you can narrow down your choices until you find that perfect spot. Here are six beautiful places in Kauai for you to enjoy:

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 the ideal area for a vacation home. It offers some the best unspoiled real estate on the island, and if you have children and love swimming and snorkeling, then this is about the best Kauai real estate you could purchase. The water is clear and quiet, with few currents and next to no waves. The climate is fabulous here on the Na Pali coastline, and you couldn’t ask for more if you want solitude and peace away from the city. There is some great land around here to buy for a fabulous vacation home.

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: While it is not near as deep as the Grand Canyon, it is more stunning as it’s filled with beautiful, lush trees, flowers, rare bird species only found in Kauai, and other wonderful sights. One thing that the Grand Canyon doesn’t have is a massive volcano in the middle, which is what helped to create the Waimea Canyon in the first place.

And there you have it, six wonderful reasons to own Kauai real estate simply for the beauty that surrounds it. There are many fine homes and properties located in other Kauai towns and beaches, which you’ll certainly want to review. However it’s pretty hard to beat the natural beauty found in the areas we’ve outlined.
