South Lānaʻi

Sunny South Lānaʻi is where you’ll find a restorative mix of peace and quiet. Here you’ll find Hulopoʻe Bay and Mānele Bay, a beautiful marine life conservation area. Rising between the two bays is the Lānaʻi landmark Puʻupehe. And fronting Hulopoʻe Beach is the exquisite Four Seasons Resort Lānaʻi where you can find a full-service spa, fine dining and the Jack Nicklaus designed Mānele Golf Course.

You can also get off the beaten path and four-wheel drive to Kaunolū, King Kamehameha’s summer fishing retreat on Lānaʻi’s southern cliffs with directions from the free downloadable Lānaʻi Guide app. Or take a drive to Kaumālapa‘u Harbor to see an incredible Lānaʻi sunset. Whether you arrive at Lānaʻi Airport or Mānele Harbor, be sure to give a friendly "Lānaʻi wave" to fellow drivers on the road during this unforgetable getaway. Stay out of restricted areas, as hunting is common on Lānaʻi.
