Allerton Garden, Kauai

Part of the National Tropical Botanical Garden, Allerton Garden is home to massive Moreton Bay fig trees. They were featured in the franchise’s first film, when Dr. Alan Grant and his young companions find a very important dinosaur nest. The garden is open for guided tours, but don’t expect to find any velociraptor eggs lying around.

Jurassic Kahili Ranch, Kauai

This 2,800-acre working cattle ranch has appeared in all of the Jurassic Park films, including Jurassic World, and has definitely earned its name. The ranch’s most famous scene is one of the most beloved of the series: the epic “Welcome to Jurassic Park” moment when Dr. Grant sees living dinosaurs for the first time.

 

Kualoa Ranch, Oahu

The impressive emerald cliffs of Kualoa have appeared in more than just dinosaur films. You can also spot them in LostKong: Skull Island, and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. A popular tourist attraction, you can sign up for a tour of the ranch’s filming locations, including the log where Dr. Grand and the kids hide from a dino stampede.

Limahuli Garden, Kauai

Another part of the National Tropical Botanical Garden, this spot provided the background for the imposing raptor paddock in the first film. While you won’t actually see any dinosaurs if you visit, you can expect to spot some of Hawaii’s endangered flora and fauna.

Manawaiopuna Waterfall, Kauai

This waterfall is one of the most recognized locations from the series, which has earned it the moniker “Jurassic Falls.” It was the location of the helipad set from the original film, which is appropriate—the 400-foot falls can only be seen by tourists on helicopter tours.

Mount Wai’ale’ale, Kauai

The iconic Jurassic Park gates were constructed at the base of this mountain. While the gates themselves are gone, the poles they were built around remain. The area is actually home to a few filming locations from the movies, but they are only accessible to the bravest of hikers.

Na Pali Coast, Kauai

The gorgeous cliffs of the Na Pali Coast are some of Kauai’s most recognized features, but they’ve also stood in for the coastline of Isla Nublar as well. To preserve the natural integrity of the area, visitors and boats are not allowed on the shore. You can, however, see the cliffs on a helicopter or boat tour.

  1. It is important for organizations to carefully evaluate the potential benefits
    and risks of the migration before initiating the process.

    I am looking for a consultant who can help us improve our financial forecasting accuracy.

  2. Drinking plenty of water before the urine test can help
    dilute the sample. The specific gravity of urine
    is a measure of its concentration compared to distilled
    water.

  3. I ensure that drug testing policies are communicated clearly in employee handbooks and
    orientation materials. Certain industries in St.

    Louis have higher rates of drug testing than others.

  4. An impressive share, I just given this onto a colleague who was doing a little analysis on this. And he in fact bought me breakfast because I found it for him.. smile. So let me reword that: Thnx for the treat! But yeah Thnkx for spending the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love reading more on this topic. If possible, as you become expertise, would you mind updating your blog with more details? It is highly helpful for me. Big thumb up for this blog post!

  5. Hey there this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting
    to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with
    HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get guidance
    from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
