The Island of Molokai
If you are looking for peace and quiet, Molokai is the island for you. As evidenced by the lack of even a single stoplight, life on Molokai moves at a much slower pace than the other islands. Unhurried and largely undeveloped, this is Hawai'i at its off-the-beaten-track best.
Molokai offers the perfect location for relaxation and fun outdoor activities from boating, hiking, biking, kayaking, snorkeling and more. If you are over 16 years old, you can take the well-known mule ride down to a 13-square mile peninsula where you will find Kalaupapa National Historical Park. This historic settlement is where Father Damien spent much of his life helping the lepers who were sent to die there in the mid 1800s.
On Molokai, the night skies are littered with brilliant stars which are brighter — unmarred by the glow of city lights. The beaches are gorgeous and most of the time, deserted. Molokai may lack elegant resorts and world-renowned restaurants, but what it lacks in glitz and glamor, it makes up with its warm and friendly spirit.
