Physical
Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech Therapy Jobs in
Kauai, Hawaii
Lush, rural feel and a laid-back lifestyle
all its own. After all, Kauai is Hawaii's oldest island and
northern most of the major islands in the Hawaiian Island
chain and, as first-born, has a legacy of paradise to uphold.
Take to boat or helicopter to witness its 14 miles of vertical
seamounts falling into a necklace of white surf spray. Experience
everything there is to do on Kauai, remember this island's
main attraction is its natural beauty and the unassuming lifestyle
of the people. Pace yourself and let the local culture sink
in wherever you go. There's always something going on somewhere-free
hula shows, coffee plantation tours, a ride on a slow boat
up the river. You can rent a bike and fly down a mountain,
find a kayak and paddle upstream, go diving, horseback riding,
or sports fishing, go to a luau, listen to Hawaiian musicians
strumming soft guitars or just stare at the moon. Kaua'i is
an island of contrasts - gentle, rolling countrysides; jagged,
forbidding mountains; magnificent canyons and desert-like
sand dunes. The island of Kaua'i is roughly circular in shape,
consisting of 552 square miles of land, making it the fourth-largest
in the island chain. Most of Kaua'i's interior is rugged mountain
terrain, uninhabited and inaccessible except by air. The island's
populated areas - both residential and resort communities
- are scattered around its coastal perimeter. Kaua'i is 33
miles wide and 25 miles long, with 143 miles of coastline.
Graced with more than 40 white sand beaches, Kaua'i boasts
more beaches per mile of coastline than any of the other Hawaiian
islands. Rainfall varies greatly around the island. The 5,075-foot
high summit of Mt. Waialeale is one of the wettest spots on
earth, averaging 444 annual inches of rain. As Kauai's watershed,
it is the fountainhead of all seven major rivers on the island.
Yet, only a few miles away, on Kauai's west and south sides,
rainfall may only average 20 to 35 inches per year. The overall
average for Kauai's populated areas is 44 inches annually.
