A request to visitors to Kauai.

Before my earnest request to the travelers who are heading for Kauai, let me share what you need to know about Kauai.

Kauai is the oldest and fourth largest of the main Hawaiian Islands. This is one of the wettest spots on Earth and is located on the east side of Mount Waialeale above 5148 ft above sea level. The high annual rainfall has eroded deep valleys in the central mountain, carving out canyons with many scenic waterfalls.

There is legend behind the origin of the name Kauai. According to native Hawaiian tradition indicates the name's origin in the legend of Hawaiiloa — the Polynesian navigator attributed with discovery of the Hawaiian Islands. The story relates how he named the island of Kauai after a favorite son; therefore a possible translation of Kauai is "place around the neck", meaning how a father would carry a favorite child.


Now coming back to my request you folks, is wherever you plan to spend your holidays, take this oath:” I support Ecotourism”. Ecological tourism, usually shortened to ecotourism, is a form of tourism which aims to be ecologically and socially conscious. Generally speaking, ecotourism focuses on local culture, wilderness adventures, volunteering, personal growth, and learning new ways to live on the planet; typically involving travel to destinations where the flora, fauna, and cultural heritage are the primary attractions.


HawaiianBeachRentals.com is a local agency that hand-picks their properties and offers first class service, while less damage to the spectacles of nature on Kauai and the other Hawaiian islands.


Do you know that the vacation rentals offered by Kauai Ecotourism Vacation Rentals practice the following eco measures?

* rerouting waste water to irrigate their golf courses and salvaging the sludge to use as fertilizer

* reducing laundry water temperatures from 90 °C to 60 °C

* replacing incandescent lights with compact fluorescent lamps

* installing low-flow shower head and low-flow toilets

* offering a sheet and towel reuse program whereby guests have their linens exchanged every two to three days instead of daily

* installing solar panels to heat water

* implementing a hotel-wide recycling program

* And replacing individual soaps and lotions with wall dispensers.

Their local and knowledgeable staff can help you unlock the secrets of Kauai to make the most of your valuable vacation.

Wouldn’t you want to preserve this verdant nature of Hawaiian locales as it is to your offspring and requesting them to pass it on to their future generations?
