There is one restaurant so quintessentially Hawaiian that it belongs on everyone’s bucket list.
Wailua Falls, sitting just north of Lihue at the south end of the Wailua River in Wailua River State Park, is a spectacular 80-foot waterfall (as measured by state officials). Others have claimed the plumb line as actually being 173 feet high. During high flows, it appears a one single massive fall, but during lower flow, it separates into three different segments--one of which cascades down two drops--over flat rock with channels cut from erosion. The falls was made famous when it was featured in the opening scene of the popular television show, Fantasy Island. During ancient times, warriors would dive over the falls to prove their bravery. Unlike most waterfalls in Kaua'i, which are inaccessible or on private land, Wailua Falls is easily accessible from above via a well marked, developed viewpoint. The brave and surefooted can hike down a steep, slippery and at times dangerous trail to the bottom of the falls.

Let’s talk about Jamaica, shall we? It is one of the most beautiful places on the planet, and has the culture to boot. I’m ashamed to say that for someone who loves warm weather, this year was the first time that I had the pleasure of visiting the country. And let’s just say that there is a lot more to the country than Bob Marley- although he is pretty fantastic. The Caribbean is the only part of the world that I suggest all-inclusive trips for. Not only are you pretty much taken care of the entire time that you’re there, but it allows you to relax, and enjoy the little piece of paradise without having to worry about pesky things like money. Also, when considering the cost of food, flight, and hotel, and accommodations, you really can’t beat the all inclusive prices. That said, if you find yourself in Jamaica, like I did, and want to explore the world outside your resort, and get to know the country a bit better without spending money I would suggest the following activities. Volunteer: This is organized and run by the Rockhouse Hotel Negril, and was by far the most rewarding part […]
