Since the early 1980s, Arnold Schuchter and Tom Barefoot have explored and enjoyed every part of Kaua"i. Uniquely beautiful by land and sea, visitors to Kaua"i have discovered most of what is worth seeing and doing on the island. This guidebook covers all of the activities, beaches, mountains, valleys and other places that make the Garden Island so universally appealing. It includes Taste of the Islands, the most complete and reliable guide to restaurants and eateries on Kaua"i published in any guidebook - and all of them are included because they serve good-to-outstanding meals, and for no other reason. The activities on land and sea recommended in this guidebook are the best you'll find on Kaua"i, provided by the most reliable vendors. Perfect Days in Kaua"i is supplemented by www. tombarefoot.com, a 600+-page Web site that covers all of Hawai"i's best activities, including Kaua"i, that have to meet the highest standards of customer service and safety. Most important, we put all of it together, including the best places to eat any time of day, into Perfect Days in Kaua"i so that visitors can get the most out of their precious vacation time. Detailed, handy KAUAI MAPS, distributed free to everyone who rents a car on Kaua"i, will enable our readers to locate every place in this guide.
