Lānaʻi (island)

Lānaʻi is the sixth-largest Hawaiian island, located in the Central Pacific. Known as the "Pineapple Island" due to its historical pineapple plantations, it boasts rugged mountains, lush valleys, and beautiful beaches. The island has a small, close-knit community and is less developed than nearby islands like Oahu or Maui. Today, Lānaʻi is largely shaped by the presence of the luxury resort developer, with much land owned by a few entities. Its natural landscape offers opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, snorkeling, and exploring its scenic wilderness, making it a tranquil destination for those seeking natural beauty and privacy.
