The Life of a Kaui Photographer

 

Abe tells us about his kayak trip along the Na Pali Coast, Kauai, Hawaii.

 

For Abe, adventuring and photography go hand in hand, so it’s no surprise he took a kayak trip, one of the most gorgeous excursions on Kauai, with his wife Alex from Tunnels Beach to Polihale to capture the photograph seen in the video attached.

The panoramic photo taken from the glassy waters of the Pacific Ocean captures the entirety of the Na Pali coastline, featuring views of the Kalalau Valley, Nualolo Kai, Kalepa Ridge, Miloli’i and Honopu. If kayaking isn’t for you, you can always explore this location by boat on a sunset cruise, helicopter tour or hike into Kalalau or Hanakapiai Falls. 

One of the main destination locations when traveling to the island of Kauai, the wonder and glory of the Na Pali is one of the most breathtaking scenes in the world, the royal Ali’i are buried here and is the subject of much Hawaiian myth and legend.

Abe took this photo with his Canon EOS 6D camera in August of 2019. Photo is available for purchase on this website or you can visit the gallery in Lihue, Hawaii across from Kalapaki Beach in Harbor Mall.
