Getting There:

By Air:

Lanai Airport ( LNY ) ( +1 808 836 6413/ http://www.hawaii.gov/dot/airports/lanai/ ) is small, focused mostly on inter-island commuter travel. Despite its size, the airport is convenient, as it is located only 3 miles from Lanai City.

By Ferry:

If you're hoping to travel to a neighboring island and are not interested in catching a jet, consider the ferry. Ferries connect Lanai with the rest of the Hawaiian Islands and are scenic, affordable, and make frequent trips. A ride on an Expeditions Inc. ( +1 808 661 3756 ) ferry will set you back USD40-50 roundtrip. Molokai Ferry ( +1 800 275 6969 ) offers roundtrips for USD40-80.

By Car:

Drivers, beware! Due to frequent rainstorms, roads can be washed out without warning. Also, the Axis deer population on the island outnumbers the people 2 to 1. Route 440, Kaumalapau Highway, is shaped like a 'V' and runs from Kaumalapau Harbor on the coast inland and then out to Hulopoe Beach Park

Getting Around:

Public transportation intra-island is virtually nonexistent, however many hotels and resorts offer shuttles to and from the Lanai Airport. Check with your hotel for availability.
