About this experience
Kauai Eco Tours
Your Kauai Eco Tour
A Kauai eco tour does not need to be rushed to feel memorable. On the Wailua River, the boat follows calm water through a green valley, with the kind of scenery that feels close to the island's older rhythms.
Smith's Tropical Paradise offers a 1.5-hour Wailua River Cruise to the Fern Grotto landing. From there, guests take a short walk through rainforest plants to Fern Grotto, a natural lava-rock grotto long tied to Kauai music, weddings and river traditions.
This is a gentle option for travelers who want scenery without a long hike or rough ocean ride. Check departure time, meeting location, walking comfort and weather before booking, and bring a camera for the river, greenery and grotto setting.
