Step into a tropical dream at Smith’s Tropical Paradise, a lush 30-acre oasis tucked away in the heart of Kauai’s Wailua River Valley. Just minutes from the main highway, yet worlds away from the everyday, this enchanting garden feels like a hidden world designed for discovery, relaxation, and wonder.

Follow over a mile of meandering pathways lined with vibrant flowers, towering bamboo, and fruit trees heavy with star fruit, jackfruit, macadamia nuts, and more. Along the way, keep your eyes open for the brilliant flash of peacocks and the calls of exotic birds that thrive in this natural sanctuary.

The gardens are alive with diversity—from the colorful Flower Wheel bursting with tropical blooms, to quiet bamboo groves and tranquil water features. You’ll also find authentic cultural touches, including replicas of Polynesian and Filipino huts, and a serene Japanese garden that has become a beloved spot for island weddings.

Whether you’re seeking a peaceful afternoon picnic, a chance to immerse yourself in Kauai’s natural beauty, or the perfect prelude to the world-famous Smith Family Garden Luau, this tropical paradise is a must-see. It’s not just a stroll—it’s a journey through the sights, scents, and spirit of the Garden Isle.
