The Hawaiian Islands are the most remote landmass in the world, and made up of a huge chain of atolls and islets that stretch out for over thirteen hundred miles of the Pacific ocean. Kauai is the forth largest island in the chain. Mount Waialeale, which is in the center island is called the “wettest spot on the earth”; it receives 425 inches of rainfall each year on its peak. Seven beautiful rivers wind their way down the mountain top through lush tropical jungles to the sea. The island’s beautiful green valleys, the mountains of Kokee, and the NaPali coastline, give the island its nickname, “The Garden Island.”
