Are the beaches of Kauai in Hawaii as dreamy in real life as these photos? 100%. Are Carly and Josh modeling for a lifestyle shoot with adidas in Hawaii? No, even better. They were on a couple’s getaway adventuring throughout the island soaking up all the magic and sunshine that Hawaii has to offer.

Carly and Josh make a sunset in Hawaii feel like you are watching your summer crush from when you were 13. Except for the fact that it wasn’t just a summer fling and they have been together for over 6 years! I couldn’t help but smile the entire time because of how genuinely sweet and playful they are to be around.

You can’t fake this kind of happiness and love in photographs! Promise, I know. So the next time you are contemplating what to do in Hawaii, don’t. There is so much satisfaction in simply doing nothing. Kauai has this way of forcing you to be present. My island friends say, “Mama Kauai always provides, and always guides us.” So grab a book, find a beach and take a dip. It’s time to connect with your soul.
