Interesting facts about Kauai
Kauai is known as the Garden Isle for a reason. The island happens to be one of the wettest places on Earth, hence the flourishing flora. In fact, Mount Waialeale—the second highest point of Kauai—literally means “rippling water” or “overflowing water” in Hawaiian and averages 451 inches of rain per year. There are a few reasons why Kauai is so wet, including its place in the Hawaiian Island chain, being the northernmost island, as well as persistently easterly trades that bring substantial moisture from the ocean.
