About Air Ventures Hawaii - Discover Kauai Air Tour
Circle Kauai on a 65-minute Air Ventures Hawaii airplane tour in a six-passenger GA-8 Airvan with Waimea Canyon, Na Pali Coast, Hanalei Valley and Kilauea Lighthouse views.
Kauai's waterfalls, valleys and legendary coastline come into view from the comfort of a GA-8 Airvan on this full-island sightseeing flight. Air Ventures' most popular tour begins over the south side of the Garden Isle, where the ancient Menehune Fishpond, the eucalyptus Tunnel of Trees and Waita Reservoir create a beautiful opening to the journey.
The flight continues above Waimea Canyon, known as the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific," before reaching the towering cliffs, hidden beaches and rugged beauty of the Na Pali Coast. From there, see Lumahai Beach, featured in the movie South Pacific, and the waterfalls spilling through Hanalei Valley.
On Kauai's east side, fly near Kilauea Lighthouse and its large frigate bird sanctuary, then follow the coastline past more waterfalls on the return to Lihue Airport.
