Even with the fluctuations in gasoline prices, natural disasters and other factors, the tourism economy of all of the Hawaiian Islands has been recovering considerably.

The overall tourist spending reached $920.7 million this April, a 20.2% rise. Vacationer spending continues to be increasing at double digit percentages continually for 12 months now. The islands of Hawaii are actually an ideal choice for a family trip in addition to a couple’s getaway. The number of activities you could enjoy is virtually endless. It features camping, sightseeing, shopping, kayaking, scuba diving, bicycling, golfing, lounging on the beaches and a lot more. Examples of the favorite vacation destinations in Hawaii include Oahu, Maui, Lanai and Kapaa.
Kapaa, Kauai - One of the most beautiful Hawaiian getaways
Among the Hawaiian Islands, Kauai is the 4th largest. It initially came to the notice of the nation in 1992 because of the damage brought about by hurricane Iniki. A number of movies such as ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ in 1981, Jurassic Park in 1993 and Six Days Seven Nights in 1998 happen to have been shot in this location. Like the rest of the Hawaiian Islands, the travel related economy of this island is also looking upwards. Kawaikini Peak (5170 ft) and Mount Waialeale (5080) are located at the center of the island. Having an average rainfall of 460 inches, Mount Waialeale is among the rainiest locations on the planet. The colorful walls of Waimea canyon, that are made of volcanic rocks, rise as high as 2,857 ft.
The small town of Kapaa found in Garden Isle, Kauai County is undoubtedly an undiscovered jewel. Due to its remote location, it is lesser known than the nearby cities of Anahola, Lihue and Wailua. Kapaa can be a place where one can avoid heavy tourist crowds and indulge in everything that Hawaii has to offer.
Warm and sunny weather, magical beaches and a wide variety of in-town activities make Kapaa a super spot to spend your holidays. These features are fast turning this enchanting seaside community into a tourist hotspot. The town provides a number of lodging options, including the beautiful Pono Kai bluegreen resort. Other than the beaches, the town itself has a great deal to offer. There are a number of fine dining restaurants, cafes, stylish boutiques and art galleries. Coconut Marketplace is usually the first stop for shopaholics. Other attractions include Opaekaa Falls, the Arts and Culture center, Children’s Museum and Makaleha Mountain.
