Lanai

"Hawaii's Most Secluded Island"

Don't be fooled by the size of Lanai, all 141 square miles of this tiny island are packed with sunny adventures and surprises. Here you'll find the dolphins who often swim into the marine sanctuary at Hulopo'e Bay, Hawaii's best preserved petroglyphs, fascinating sea caves, and isolated coves.

You may choose to explore the coastline by kayak, ride the mountain bike trails, dive the Lanai Cathedrals, or drive to Lanai's highest point on the Munro Trail, where on a good day, you can see four of the major Hawaiian Islands. Or simply take a picnic lunch to one of Lanai's deserted cove and enjoy your own exclusive plot in paradise. So take a right just off the beaten path, and explore Lanai, a fantastic little island!
