Sit on some big basalt boulders at the bottom of the pool and savor a delicious picnic lunch while enjoying the stunning scenery that surrounds you. Then, hike back down to the ruddered tandem open cockpit kayaks for some more fun paddling!As you pass through this spectacular and interesting valley by kayak and on foot, your guide will be sharing the manao (knowledge) of the island. Youll be filled in on the history of ancient Kauai and how the Alii (royalty) and Makaainana (common people) lived and played here long ago. Youll learn about the unique and unusual medicinal and food plants that inhabit Kauais Wailua River Valley, as well as identifying many beautiful ornamental plants, both native and introduced. All this will take place as you get to know each other and have some laughs in this incredible setting.The return part of this kayaking Kauai tour is downstream, but into the trade winds, giving you a bit of a workout on this leg of the journey.
