Smith's Kauai is a family business established by Walter Smith, Sr. and his wife Emily in 1947 on the Wailua River and Wailua Marina State Park on the Hawaiian island of Kauai.[1] It began with a rowboat and borrowed outboard motor and by the 1950s had expanded to include the Fern Grotto Wailua River Cruise, which featured more than a dozen vessels in 2016.[1][2] Subsequent additions included Smith's Tropical Paradise-a 30-acre botanical and cultural garden-, Smith's Weddings In Paradise and the Smith Family Garden Luau.[3]
