The Na Pali Coast is a stunningly beautiful and rugged 17-mile stretch of coastline located on the Hawaiian island of Kauai. It is a place of breathtaking beauty, with towering cliffs, lush valleys, cascading waterfalls and stunningly blue waters.

The Na Pali Coast is located on the northwest side of the island of Kauai. It is bordered by the Kalalau Valley to the north and the Nualolo Valley to the south.

It is a popular spot for kayaking, sailing, and hiking, and the area is also home to a variety of wildlife, such as dolphins, whales, and sea turtles.
