Kauai Activities

If you’re looking to experience the true beauty of Hawaii, the Kauai Botanical Gardens are a must-see!

The importance of plants to life on earth is immeasurable. We depend upon them for the air we breathe, for the food we eat, for shelter, and for medicine.

Ninety percent of all plant and animal species on our planet exist in the tropics—a belt of warm, moist climates that circles the earth. And it is in these regions where the extinction rate is the highest. Species are disappearing faster than anyone knows. They cannot be replaced.

The Limahuli Gardens is dedicated to preserving tropical plant diversity and stemming the tide of extinction through plant exploration, propagation, habitat restoration, scientific research, and education. NTBG’s gardens and preserves are safe havens for at-risk species that otherwise might disappear forever.

Be sure to stay enjoy a visit to the Kauai Botanical Gardens during your stay at our Poipu Beach condo rentals!
