Discover Lanai
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009One of the most beautiful islands in Hawaii is Lanai. Here snorkeling is at its best as you explore Hulopoe Bay, a famed diving spot. With its clear blue waters, it is hard to get out of the water as it caresses your skin and soothes out all the stresses. But there is more to do on a Lanai vacation than just this.
The Monroe Trail is an amazing destination with its breathtaking views and a 1,600 foot climb. Just outside of Lanai city, the rustic trail reveals canyon vistas of the Maunalei gulch and neighboring island, Maui. Head to the top of Mount Lanailhale where you will climb up to 3,368 feet.
Not to be missed is the Garden of the Gods, or Keahiakawelo, a lunar-like landscape of otherworldly rock pilings. There is much lore around this beautiful place, and a guided tour will update you on the legends that surround it. Hike or four-wheel drive to the site where you will experience something truly unique.
There are two championship golf courses in Lanai as well as two beautiful resorts to stay in. Don’t take a vacation to Hawaii without at least visiting this quintessential island where you will have plenty of memories to take home at the end of your stay.
