Lanai

Lana'i, Hawaii LANA'I The Secluded Island Hawaii's sixthlargest island, Lana'i is sparsely populated with miles of pristine beaches, only thirtymiles of paved roads and not a single traffic light. A secluded island, it covers 141square miles that range in elevation from sea level to more than 3,400 feet. The lowlandsare fringed with beaches and rugged sea cliffs, while the highlands were a mosaic ofmeadows and woodlands, laced with rainbows and mountain mists. Once carpetedwith acre upon acre of pineapples, today it is the newest and most secluded resort in thearchipelago. Under the stewardship of land owner Lana'i Company, Hawaii's secluded islandnow offers visitors a complete island adventure from a rival at tiny Lana'i airport to thewarm hospitality of Lana'i 3,000 permanent residents. Lana'i boaststop rated golf courses. The 18 hole championship experience at Koele designed by golf guruGreg Norman and architect Ted Robinson will provide the ultimate challenge with views tofour other islands. The Challenge at Manele Golf Course designed by Jack Nicklaus has beenfashioned from more than 70 acres of natural lava fields around protected archaeologicalpreserves and provides dramatic ocean side views. Don't miss avisit to Lana'i's only town, tiny Lana'i city built by Dole pineapple interest in 1924.Surrounding a village green-filled with towering Norfolk Island pines, it is like steppingback a century into a plantation community. A small but fascinating museum houses localtreasures and provide an insight into Lana'i's history. There are excellent opportunitiesfor adventure and visitors are free to enjoy the run of this tropical island made possibleby Lana'i Company, which still owns 98% of the island. Camping sites are also available. There are fourwheel drive routes in the high forest through thick strands of eucalyptus and NorfolkIsland pines, hiking, horse riding, kayaking, scuba diving and snorkelling. You can strollthe beach where the only foot prints are yours, explore sites where the ancient Hawaiiansworked the land and fished the sea, or visit former pineapple fields which are now organicgardens supplying fresh fruit and vegetables. The natureconservancy stewards 598 acres set aside to preserve native plants in the hope ofunravelling some of the mysterious of Hawaiian evolution. From Shipwreck Beach on Lana'i'snorthern coast, you can see the rusting hulk of a World War 2 ship marooned on thetreacherous offshore reefs. One of Hawaii's best preserved Petroglyph sites is easilyaccessible by a short trail nearby. What makesLana'i unique is its sense of remoteness, seclusion and privacy. With the addition of asmall number of luxury homes on the island, Lana'i promises to become the ultimate retreatfor reclusive celebrities and millionaires as well as one of the world's top resortdestinations.

It was originally named Laeahi by the ancient Hawaiians. The name meant "brow of the tuna" and looking at the silhouette of the crater from Waikiki, you can see the resemblance. The current name came was given to the crater by British sailors in the 1800's. When they first saw the crater at a great distance, the calcite crystals in the lava rock appeared to glimmer in the sunlight. The sailors mistakenly thought there must be diamonds in the soil. Diamond Head is a crater that has been extinct for 150,000 years. The crater is 3,520 feet in diameter with a 760-foot summit. When the United States annexed Hawaii in 1898, harbor defense became a main responsibility. One of the major defense forts, Fort Ruger, occupied the Diamond Head Crater. A battery of canons was located within the crater providing complete concealment and protection from invading enemies. An observation deck was constructed at the summit in 1910 to provide target sighting and a four level underground complex was built within the walls of the crater as a command post. A 580-foot tunnel was dug through the crater wall to provide easier access to the Fort. The observation deck and underground complex is now abandoned with the advent of radar but evidence of the command post is still present along Diamond Head Trail. The trail is paved almost the entire way but can be steep in spots. There are two sets of stairs, one with 99 steps and the other, 76 steps. There is also a 225-foot unlit tunnel. The hike is classified as easy to moderate in exertion but is certainly worth the breathtaking, unparalleled view of the entire west side of the island, from Waikiki to Koki Head. Useful Information: Diamond Head Trail is 1 ¾ miles to the rim and takes about 1 ½ hours There is NO shade schedule an early hike Bring water and a flashlight (for the tunnel) Bathrooms available at the trailhead Age Required information Quantity Price Add to Itinerary Diamond Head Crater Adventure Adult or Child Date: * Request Time of Hike --- 6:00am Sunrise Tour 9:30am Laterise Tour * Names on Tickets (ex.John, David) * $20.00 Kauai | Oahu | Molokai | Lanai | Maui | Hawaii Home | Contact Us | View Itinerary | Island Maps | Brochures | Screensavers | Free Newsletter About Us | Site Map | Privacy Policy Call Us Toll Free at 1.866.268.7459 All content © 2003 HawaiiWeb, Inc.
