Genealogy in Hawaii
» kauai Kauai is a beautiful but deadly island. Many of the beaches warn of strong currents, and in fact, four people died while we were there; two were swept off the cliffs by a wave at Queens Bath, one was swept out by currents on Hanakapi'ai Beach, and the last drowned while snorkeling at Tunnels Beach. This is not typical though, so don't freak out, and while you are on the land there is nothing you really nead to worry about, no bears or poisonous snakes. For the most part, the only wildlife is what has been introduced by humans: pigs, chickens, and goats. Information on any of the hikes/sights shown on this page can be found in the ubiquitous Kauai travel guide: The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook: Kauai Revealed Waipo'o Falls dropping 800 feet into Waimea Canyon.
