Lanai
Lanai, the "Pineapple Island" is a private island with a dramatic and varied landscape. Island elevations range from sea level to cliffs up to 3,400 feet.
Lanai's rural charm and two world-class resorts offer a totally different kind of vacation. Snorkeling and scuba diving is the best anywhere.
The island's marvelous four-wheel and hiking trails lead you to Hawaiian temples, ancient petroglyphs, and other wonders few people have yet discovered.
Once only used for growing pinapples, Lanai is now growing into a world-class resort area. The rural village of Lanai City was the only real development on the island until 1990, when the unique Lodge at Koele was opened in the highlands. The second resort to be built was the Manele Bay Hotel, a Mediterranean-style property surrounded by lush gardens and waterfalls, overlooking the remarkable white sand beaches of Manele Bay and Hulopoe Bay.
