Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge is one of three nature preserves on Kauai Island; it is also the oldest of the three, having been established in 1972. It is located on the island's north shore and surrounded by a range of mountains known for spectacular waterfalls. The purpose of the refuge is to protect several species of endangered birds. Some of the birds are native to the area, while many other species were introduced after the park had been opened. The valley is flat with rivers flowing through and has steep wooded hillsides lining the base of the surrounding mountains.

My husband and I rented Jarom's camper van for part of our honeymoon in Kauai. It was the perfect way to explore the island. The booking process was easy, and Jarom was so friendly, attentive, and helpful. The van was clean, well-equipped with a kitchen, comfy bed, and solar-powered amenities, making it ideal for adventures.
