In Hawaii, we don't have to travel thousands of miles to see the Grand Canyon. Our island of Kaua'i boasts its own 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific'...Waimea Canyon.
Make the drive to west Kauai and feast your eyes on the beauty of Waimea Canyon. Spanning ten miles wide and 3,000 ft deep, you are treated to colorful crags, buttes, and deep valley gorges. On a good day you might be able to see water streams and goats.
