LĪHU‘E, KAUA‘I – It’s an exciting time for Kaua‘i with another blockbuster Hollywood movie production making plans to begin location filming this summer and utilize the spectacular beauty of the “Garden Island” in telling its story.

“We are absolutely thrilled to have Disney coming to Kaua‘i to film Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and fans can expect our island to look as gorgeous and inviting as ever when the movie hits the big screen,” said Sue Kanoho, executive director for the Kaua‘i Visitors Bureau. “Being in the midst of Kaua‘i’s beauty is always such an enjoyable and inspiring experience. It’s by far the quality that visitors and Hollywood find most appealing whenever they come here.”
