Molokai Island Hawaii Island Molokai Vacation Travel

"The friendly Isle" of Molokai might be small and without street lights and fast food joints, but it abounds in natural beauty and a slower pace. The largest town on Molokai island is Kaunakakai and the entire island is just 260 square miles in area. This least developed of the main Hawaiian islands lies east of Oahu and north of Lanai. The western side of the island is very dry and has little vegetation due to overgrazing by goats. The eastern half has higher elevations and is beautifully lush. From the tallest sea cliffs in the world to mule rides into the Kalaupapa Historical Park or just taking in the untouched tropical landscape, a visit here will wash the trappings of busy city life from your soul. A ferry ride will allow you to enjoy Hawaii's largest white sand beach, breathtaking waterfalls, rainbows in the mist, and learn about the birthplace of the hula.
