Kauaii with Epic One Adventures (6 Days, 6 Nights)
Kauai is Hawaii’s fourth largest island and is sometimes called the “Garden Island,” which is an entirely accurate description. The oldest and northernmost island in the Hawaiian chain is draped in emerald valleys, sharp mountain spires and jagged cliffs aged by time and the elements. Centuries of growth have formed tropical rainforests, forking rivers, and cascading waterfalls. Some parts of Kauai are only accessible by sea or air, revealing views beyond your imagination. More than just dramatic beauty, the island is home to a variety of outdoor activities. Not only will we enjoy world-class yoga and meditation sessions, but we also have incredible activities planned such as hiking, kayaking, snorkeling and more. The island’s laid-back atmosphere and rich culture found in its small towns immersed in the canvas of nature make it truly timeless.
Koloa Landing Resort
Our clients will experience luxurious amenities including a poolside bar and world-class restaurants, a 24-hour fitness center, a day spa with private treatment rooms and the island’s only all-copper Ofuro Japanese soaking tub, three gorgeous resort pools, and indoor/outdoor yoga studios. The 25-acre property also features a volleyball net, putting green area, soccer area, poolside BBQs, Jacuzzis, fire pits, full food & beverage service.

Zodiak boats along the south-west shore, sea caves
This morning’s activity is truly an adventure as we speed across the ocean in a high-speed zodiac along the Napali coastline. We will glide near shore and in and out of the few sea caves here, all while gazing up at the towering cliff walls covered in trees and flowers that rise dramatically from the water. Along the way, we will also stop at a secluded, perfect beach.

The National Tropical Botanical Garden is a gem of the island. Diverse and full of natural life, it is dedicated to preserving tropical plant diversity and stemming the tide of extinction – through plant exploration, propagation, habitat restoration, scientific research, and education.

Traditional Luau Dinner and Ceremony
There are few moments that encapsulate the true Hawaiian spirit better than a luau, and we will be part of the finest one in all of Kauai. The two main parts that make a luau special are the food and the ceremony. After feasting on roasted meats and vegetables from an earthen oven, with fresh fruits and juices from the island, we will be treated to a traditional dance ceremony which includes songs, Polynesian dances and a fire ceremony. This will be a night to always remember.
