In an effort to make this an unforgettable experience, Polynesian Adventures will take you as close as possible to the volcanic activity. Please read the following cautionary comments before selecting this tour. When lava enters the ocean, the intense heat produces a plume cloud with dangerous and potentially life threatening toxic gases, super heated steam, and hydrochloric acid. Airborne particles are a hazard to your eyes and lungs. Watch for shifting winds that can blow acid mist clouds over you. Leave the area at once. Where lava enters the ocean the coastline is extended. This new surface is unstable and may collapse at at any time without warning. Do not approach areas where lava is entering the ocean. Sharp lava cracks and holes, loose rock, and thin crust greatly increase your risk of getting hurt. Falling on lava can result in nasty wounds. Wear sturdy walking shoes. Use sunscreen, wear a hat, and drink plenty of fluids. If inland flows are present, and you use caution, you may have an opportunity to view fresh lava close up. Follow marked routes and your guides instructions. Molten lava is 2000 degrees F, so keep a safe distance and never go into areas where your escape route may be cut off. Do not throw objects into lava as this can cause burns from spattering lava or eye injuries from airborne volcanic glass fragments. BE AWARE, STAY ALERT, AND USE CAUTION AT ALL TIMES, DO NOT TAKE CHANCES. Terms and Conditions Please note: the name you enter at the time of booking must be exactly as appears on your photo I.D. Interisland Air Carriers will deny boarding if the passenger name, as shown on valid government-issued I.D. does not match the name on their voucher. This is a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and FAA requirement. Air Carriers proven to be non-compliant are subject to severe penalties; thus there is no flexibility with this policy.

From Lanai's only town, I had driven half an hour north on a single-lane dirt road to this otherworldly plateau of red dust, pinnacles, and encrusted lava. I turned off the engine of the jeep but left the radio blaring rock from a Big Island station. Walking away from the car—at just the point where the trade winds began to drown out the electric guitar—I felt suddenly and deliriously alone. Like many city dwellers, I fantasize about being stranded on a Pacific island. I read Robinson Crusoe as a kid and saw Cast Away the day it opened, but I'd never experienced the exquisite ache of loneliness that a shipwreck survivor might feel until that moment, standing at the northern edge of Lanai and looking out at the darkening ocean. Of course, this was an illusion. When I turned around, my jeep was there, with the Stone Temple Pilots singing an anthem to modern-day alienation. But all was not lost: I was still on Lanai. Shaped like a teardrop, 18 miles long, and only 13 miles across at its widest point, Lanai has retained a sense of splendid seclusion. No theme-park resorts here. In fact, since the island was once used for growing pineapples and cattle ranching—and 98 percent of it is owned by a single real estate holding—development has been kept to a minimum. Lanai City, with a population of just 3,000, is tightly contained in less than four square miles and still looks like the 1920s pineapple-plantation village it used to be. About half of the island's coast is sheer cliff against ocean, and most of the land is arid—red dirt and low grass. There are less than three dozen miles of paved road, not a single mile of which runs along the coastline; nearly all shore access is by jeep trail, hiking, or rappelling. From almost any place on the island, I had to walk only 15 minutes and I could be deep in my thousands-of-miles-from-civilization reverie. The illusion of utter isolation is a delicacy, but like ordering blowfish at a sushi bar, it's one you want carefully served with the poison excised. Which is to say that the thrill of feeling stranded can sometimes lead to restlessness if you don't have an ultra-luxe hotel to head back to at the end of the day. Fortunately, Lanai has two such retreats. The low, Mediterranean-style buildings of the Manele Bay Hotel are terraced into a hillside next to the island's nicest strand, Hulopoe Beach. The most decadent suites—outfitted with four-poster beds—come with butler service, so I wasn't surprised to learn that, back in the early nineties, Bill Gates had rented the entire place for his wedding. Ten miles away, close to town, the Lodge at Koele, with its old-world hunting-estate decor, is an oddity in Hawaii. Because it's situated at 1,700 feet in the island's center, breezes are often cool enough to warrant use of the lobby's wood-burning fireplace. Both resorts have golf courses that are so well manicured and cleverly designed, with ocean backdrops and island greens, that they look like the virtual landscapes in a golf video game. What I like best about Lanai is that it manages a perfect balance between what there is to do and what there isn't. Sure, you can hook up with scuba and fishing charters, sample world-class snorkeling off Shipwreck Beach (so named because a World War II Liberty Ship rusts on the reef), sea-kayak with pods of spinner dolphins in Kaunolu Bay, mountain-bike down the Munro Trail, and ride horses above Maunalei Gulch. But karaoke nightclubs and beachfront bacchanalias? If you use party as a verb, this is not your island. In the end, your choices come down to a happily manageable handful: Should I play croquet or visit the sporting-clay facility to blow some plates out of the sky? Should I take a jeep down that dirt road or rent a mountain bike and go exploring? Should I get the alii banana-and-coconut scrub or the ki pola hoolu ti leaf wrap? Still want more? Take your day planner and head for Maui. Access & Resources Hole Up: The 249-room, Mediterranean-style Manele Bay Hotel is the only resort on the water. Its spacious rooms open onto garden courtyards or overlook Hulopoe Beach, the island's best. Doubles from $400; 800-450-3704, www.manelebayhotel.com » If you're into fetishizing the lifestyle of English lords and ladies, the 102-room Lodge at Koele, just north of Lanai City, is perfection. The largest wooden structure in the islands, it's modeled after old English hunting lodges, with a full croquet course and pros to teach you the game. Doubles from $400; 800-450-3704, www.lodgeatkoele.com » The oldest and most low-key of the island's accommodations is the 11-room Hotel Lanai, on the edge of Lanai City. Built by pineapple king James Dole in 1923 to house his execs, the plantation-style rooms have a warm charm. Doubles from $105; 877-665-2624, www.hotellanai.com Dine: The Blue Ginger Café is a casual local favorite just across the street from Dole Park, in the center of Lanai City. Eat there two days in a row and you're likely to see the same friendly faces. 808-565-6363 » Henry Clay's Rotisserie, in the Hotel Lanai, serves hearty New Orleans fare at moderate prices. The small bar here is one of the few places where locals and visitors mingle. 877-665-2624 Get Out: Trilogy Ocean Sports Lanai is the catchall guiding service on the island. It leads catamaran-supported scuba dives to the walls and reefs below Lanai's rocky shores, rents jeeps to explore the island's mostly dirt roads, and arranges guided four-wheel-drive expeditions if you don't want to go it alone. Prices vary; 888-628-4800, www.visitlanai.com » Thanks to the cliffs that cover nearly half of Lanai's 47-mile coastline, access to many beaches requires a hike or four-wheel drive. There is one notable exception: Hulopoe Beach, at the south end of Route 440, is not only car-accessible; it's continually rated as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. On the west end of the beach, the Manele Bay Hotel keeps a stash of snorkel equipment in a kiosk for its guests. » Blast a couple of clay pigeons at the Lodge at Koele's sport-shooting facility. $150 for 100 rounds; 808-559-4600, www.lodgeatkoele.com Shop: The Heart of Lanai art gallery sells island paintings by local artists and custom-made ukuleles. 888-565-7815 Next Page: Your ticket to the land of big cliffs and big hearts Intro | Kauai | Big Island | Lanai | Molokai | Oahu | Maui • Subscribe to Outside magazine for just $1.50 per month. • Give the gift of Outside Magazine!

Hawaiian Girl

Hawaiian Dresses and Hawaiian Shirts for the Whole `Ohana! Pa`inaGirl.com specializes in cute Hawaiian dresses. Our Hawaiian dresses are popular choices for informal beach wedding dresses or affordable bridesmaid dresses and range from fun and flirty to casual elegant. Hawaiian dresses and matching shirts can be worn for all occasions; our matching aloha prints can be used for parties, family photos and luaus, unique bridal wear, company events, and of course just for fun. In fact, our resort wear has been very popular for beach wedding dresses or garden wedding dresses since they are so comfortable and pretty, too! (Matching the guys in Hawaiian shirts is always a nice touch, too, even if you are just attending a party and are not in the party!) We are located on the island of O`ahu, nicknamed "the Gathering Place," as most of the population in Hawaii lives and works here. Even though it's cold out, why not take a trip to the islands, even if only in your mind? You'll be warmed by the thought! Locals here in Hawaii have been enjoying the comfort and style of "alohawear" since the 1930s, but the popularity of its bright colors and prints has caught on everywhere. Perhaps it's because of the happy feelings these friendly prints evoke -- put on some alohawear and you can't help but feel as though you're on vacation in paradise! The modern Hawaiian dress is actually something of a new phenomenon for the ladies -- in previous years, the "hawaiian dress" was usually a very conservative mu`umu`u -- definitely not very provocative (however, island women and girls do still wear mu`umu`us on Aloha Friday!). HEY HULA GALS! Looking for hula costumes? Check out our hula store at HulaStuff.com for muumuus, pa`u skirts, coconut bras and more. PA`INA PEEPS! Some of our model friends are something of celebrities in Hawaii. Check out the gallery. Currently in our Hawaii celebrities gallery: Miss Hawaii 2002 Kehaulani Christian, Actress and model Sondra Barker, former UH Football Offensive Assistant Tyson Helton, Island entertainer Jon Yamasato and former UH record-breaking quarterback Nick Rolovich. Cool and hip aloha shirts always abounded for the guys, but stylish island girls found it hard and frustrating to express their Hawaiian style in a feminine way. Only in recent years have aloha wear makers finally caught on and realized that sexy Hawaiian dresses belong in every island girl's closet! You can take the girl from the island... but not the island from the girl! From silky, elegant matching resort wear to bold, fun Hawaiian print dresses, we've got a range of high quality clothing appropriate for every occasion. Let your 'ohana stand out with colorful matching Hawaiian attire --- whether your 'ohana is made up of you and your significant other, co-workers, family, or close friends.
