Spa treatments, day ferry excursions to Lanai, whale watching (Dec-May), and fishing charters are just a few of the activities that will give you the chance to "get your feet wet." For everyone else, there is a wide variety of Lei making, crafts, and much, much more. Places to visit: The Munro Trail : Named for George Munro, the New Zealand naturalist who planted Lanai's magnificent pines, this eight mile four wheel drive and hiking trail starts about a mile north of Lanai City and climbs in a southeasterly direction through impressive rain forests and deep canyons. It leads to the 3,370-foot Lanai Hale, the highest point on the island. On a clear day, all of Hawaii's islands, except Kaua'i and Ni'ihau, can be seen from this perch. Manele Bay & Hulopo'e Beach : A section of paved highway 440 known as Manele Road links Lanai City with picturesque Manele Bay, which has a small boat harbor with slips for local boats and tour boats from Maui. West of this port is Hulopo'e the island's most beautiful and safest swimming beach. It is the only picnic site on Lanai that has tables, barbecues, showers and rest rooms. The Bay and Hulopo'e beach are part of a marine conservancy district, which means outstanding snorkeling. Kaumalapau Harbor : Another paved stretch of Highway 440 which, like the one to Manele Bay, cuts through miles of what used to be pineapple fields and is now hay fields, connects Lanai City with this main island port. Pineapples, vehicles and freight are shipped out from this harbor. Other than this activity the simple harbor is of little interest to outsiders, but the dramatic views of the sea, high bluffs, and jagged cliffs on the stretch of the coast are worth the six-mile ride from town. Kaunolu Village : Also on the south coast, about midway between Kaumalapau Harbor and Hulopo'e Beach, are the remains of a once busy fishing community. Scattered on a bluff above the ocean, these ruins of more than 80 homes and other structures are said to be the most extensive and best preserved in the state. A national historical landmark, Kaunolu lies at the end of a rugged three-mile jeep trail that can be traveled only when the soil is dry. This area was a favored summertime playground of a great King of the Hawaiian Islands, King Kamehameha the Great. From the cliffs high above the sea at Kahekili's deep leap, Kamehameha's soldiers proved their courage by plunging more than 60 feet into the ocean. Garden of the Gods : This is a fascinating canyon of wind carved sand and lava formations whose colors change throughout the day. Legend has it, that the rock formations were created by the gods. It is said that the gods like making art and this is where they would make their sculptures. The gods would make strong winds to sculpt their rock art formations. That is why there is no grass or trees in the garden of the gods, just dirt and stones surround. Legend tells us, it is bad luck to tamper with the artwork of the gods. So be respectful when visiting this sacred place. Polihua Beach : Just beyond Garden of the Gods, this trail snakes for a few miles down to a two-mile long white sand beach. This secluded, dreamy stretch of white sand is not recommended for swimming because of strong currents, but noted for excellent surfing. Great for picnicking or just strolling along the beach. Shipwreck Beach : Highway 440, also known as Keomoku road, leads from town to Lanai's northeast or windward coast. This narrow and winding road climbs high over the middle of the island and offers are stunning views of both Moloka'i and Maui as well as the abandoned, rusting hulls of two fairly large ships that gave the four-mile beach of white sand its name. Most of the eight mile stretch of road is paved until you reach a dirt road, which takes you left, into the entrance of the beach. Keomoku Village : At the end of the paved portion of Highway 440 (Keomoku Road) a dirt road branches right along the coast. Following this road about six miles will bring you to the site of the Maunalei Sugar Company, (it's said that if one hikes far into the trees toward the mountains, you'll find the remainders of the train tracks that was used to haul sugar cane). Having failed in 1901, all but one of the decaying buildings were razed in the early 1970's. Left standing was the Hawaiian Church. Legend maintains that sacred stones, placed by the Gods, were moved to build this fishing village. As a result, the water turned brackish and forced the villagers to leave. Lanai Weekly events : Saturday Market in Dole park: A weekly gathering of local vendors, as they proudly present authentic fares. Local grown vegetables, potted plants and a cultural mix of Hawaiian, Japanese, and Filipino delicacies can be found. Local artists and craft makers may also display their works of art here. Lanai Theatre : First run movies are played from Friday through Tuesday evenings. Two shows at 6:30 p.m. and 8:15 p.m. Special events : Lanai Visiting Artist Program: Throughout the calendar year the island community and visitors have a unique opportunity to meet and mingle with world-famous virtuosos of literature, music, film, fine arts and the culinary world. This program is sponsored by Castle & Cooke Resorts, LLC., Island Air and Happy Vacations. Please inquiry directly, for information on a schedule of the upcoming visiting artist program.

Hawaiian Food

Traditional Foods The Settlement of Polynesia Part I The Settlement of Polynesia Part II The Spirit of `Ohana and the Polynesian Voyagers Provisions for Micronesian Voyage Provisions for Polynesian Voyages Traditional Foods and Preparation Plants Introduced to Hawaii Hawaii Proverbs Sin at Awarua Story History & Culture Traditional Foods and Their Preparation by Chad Baybayan The land and sea provided the Hawaiian with everything he needed to sustain himself. His diet helped him maintain a healthy, disease-free body. Today, it is our modern diet that produces many of the problems that ails Hawaiians. A dietary reform back to a traditional diet is the cure to some of the Native Hawaiian's health problems. Preserving food was essential to providing nourishment during a voyage. Drying and fermenting were the two techniques used in food preservation. Fresh foods were eaten at the start of the trip. Fishing along the way also supplemented food the voyagers brought with them. The Polynesians had to be excellent horticulturist also if they expected to survive once they got to land. Plants were transported as slips, cuttings, tubers and seedlings. The traditional diet is everything the doctor ordered for a long trip--compact, light, and nutritious. Here is what they brought: Plant Food--'ulu (breadfruit); niu (coconut, meat and drink); uhi (yam); 'uala (sweet potato); mai'a (banana); kalo (taro); kukui (candlenut); ko (sugar cane); hala (pandanus flour, paste) Animal Food--i'a (fish, dried and fresh); pua'a (pig); moa (chicken); 'ilio (dog) Preparing Foods for Voyaging by Paige Kawelo Barber, Moku Froiseth, and June Gutmanis Pepeie'e 'Ulu (Breadfruit and Coconut Cream)--Use the commercial variety of coconut cream or make your own by grating ripe coconut meat. Cover with warm water, let set, then squeeze through fine sieve. Liquid is coconut cream. Thoroughly mash very ripe 'ulu, mix in a great deal of coconut cream, wrap in ti leaves and cook thoroughly. Set oven at 350 degrees, bake until firm. Cool, slice and dry in sun so that a hard oily film forms on the surface. Kukui (Candlenut)--Remove outer husk and roast in barbecue pit over medium coals or in oven at 350 degrees for about one hour. Crack shell, remove nut, mash, add rock salt. Use as a flavoring in raw fish dishes. Oil of the nut serves as light fuel and body oil to prevent sunburn. Ki or Ti--Cut stalk two to four feet long. About the time the stalk starts to sprout new leaf buds, which will take about three months, cut the top of the stalk off. Wrap in green ti leaves and cook. Use the lowest temperature setting on your oven. Cook 24 hours. Dry. Limu (Seaweed)--Clean and wash well, set out to dry. Takes one to two days for drying. Reconstitute with water when ready to eat. Sea water is acceptable. Mai'a (Banana)--Select firm-ripe mai'a with slight green tinge remaining on skin. Peel and slice lengthwise into three or four strips. Arrange on drying rack; turn once a day. Dries between four and fourteen days depending on area; faster drying occurs in Makaha and slower drying in Manoa. Do not be concerned with the change of color of the mai'a during the process of drying. Mai'a is ready when consistency resembles dried apples. Ko (Sugar Cane)--Select mature cane which has not begun to 'sprout;' cut at base and bottom of leafy top. Wrap exposed ends to prevent cane from drying out. Store in cool, dry place. Cut off bark and cut again in stick-like pieces for eating. Niu (Coconut)--Life expectancy of fresh niu is quite good; the entire nut is useful as food, drink, and fuel. The a a niu (coconut cloth) is not used to wrap things. It substitutes for toilet paper; is not as rough when wet. 'Ulu (Breadfruit)--Select 'ulu which has reached the o o (mature) stage of ripeness, picking those still on the tree. 'ulu has reached the o'o stage when white sap appears on skin of fruit, and 'browning' of the skin can be seen. Bake for one-and-a-half hours, or steam for one hour. Let cool. Remove skin and seeds; mash into pulp. Spread on sheet of wax paper; place similar length of wax paper over 'ulu pulp. Using rolling pin or bottle, spread 'ulu out as you would when preparing dough for pie. Remove top wax paper. Place 'ulu on lower wax paper on drying rack; save the other piece of wax paper for later. When surface of 'ulu dries, turn entire sheet of 'ulu onto the first wax paper. Repeat until drying process is complete, turning once a day. 'Ulu assumes a deep reddish brown color when dried; takes four days in hot area to dry completely. Tuck in one end of dried 'ulu, and roll as you would a jelly roll. Wrap in plastic wrap. Hapu'u or ama'uma'u (Ferns)--Cook the butt ends of the fern stalk. Store when cool. The Hawaiians considered ki and hapu'u to be famine foods. When food was scarce, due to drought, these plants were eaten. I'a (Fish)--Immediately after catching, keep the fish cool and under cover. As soon as possible after catching, cut and salt fish for drying. Cut fish on one side of dorsal line through the head, leaving the belly line intact. If fish are large, cut through bones parallel to spinal column, and cut flesh to allow salt to penetrate. Spread open the cut fish, remove gills, viscera, and the coagulated blood along the spinal column and wash the cavity clean. Hawaiians in the past rubbed the exposed flesh on both cut sections with the blood. Slap the cut portion onto the salt which should be evenly distributed over the exposed flesh. The skin section need not be treated in this manner, as it will receive an adequate amount of salt when the fish is stacked in the container. Place the fish in a wide container with the salted portion down and stack in layers as evenly as possible. The fish in each layer should be laid vertically to those on the bottom layer. After all the fish have been salted, place container under cover and allow to stand overnight. The next morning wash salted fish thoroughly and soak in water for one or two hours. During this period the water should be changed two or three times. When salt can barely be tasted, fish is ready for drying. 'Uala (Sweet Potato) and Uhi (Yam)--Rinse and cook, preferably by steaming. Test for readiness by piercing with fork; do not overcook. Let stand to cool, then slice into l / 2 inch pieces; arrange on drying rack, turning once a day. Dries within three to four days. He'e (Octopus)--Keep freshly caught he'e cool and damp. Before drying, remove the ala ala (ink bags) and salt them for drying (usually to be used for other purposes although it is used as a flavoring ingredient when prepared for raw consumption). Pound the he'e thoroughly with approximately two handfuls of salt. Add more salt as it dissolves. Pound in an up-and-down motion, grasping the central or head portion and pounding it on the rest of the body and tentacles. After as much as seven hundred strokes and intermittent washing, the whole he'e becomes tender enough so that the flesh tears easily with a minimum of effort. The process of pounding in salt serves two purposes: (1) removing mucus and (2) tenderizing. After pounding and rinsing off the extraneous matter, hang up the he'e to dry for three or more days. Kalo (Taro)--Wash and cook thoroughly, preferably by boiling. Best to leave skin on while cooking, removing skin as soon as kalo is cooked and cool enough to handle. When dried after pounding, kalo is similar to hard-tack, especially if rolled out into thin layers or sliced. To prepare pa'i'ai, follow the above cooking instructions, wet board and pounder lightly with water. With even strokes, begin mashing kalo while still warm from cooking, producing a doughy mass. Lightly wet board and pounder to prevent sticking. Be careful not to use too much water; the less water the better. Be sure to mash thoroughly so you have a smooth, heavy poi. Fermentation of pa'i'ai acts as a preservative, as it does in regular poi. The process of fermentation is much slower in pa'i'ai.
