Brief
- Lanai is a small, remote island with limited accommodation, dining, medical services and vehicle availability. Reserve hotels, rental cars and ferry or flight connections well in advance, and allow flexibility for weather-related cancellations.
- Roads beyond Lanai City can be rough and unpaved. A suitable vehicle is advisable for remote beaches, trails and scenic areas, and visitors should avoid driving unfamiliar back roads after heavy rain.
- Try local Hawaiian foods such as ahi poke, laulau, kalua pork, poi and malasadas, as well as locally grown Lanai coffee and tropical fruit.
- Ocean conditions can change quickly. Follow posted warnings, use designated swimming areas and take extra care at beaches without lifeguards.
Safety and health
- Avoid approaching or handling wild mammals, especially bats. Seek urgent medical care after any bite, scratch or possible bat contact because rabies is almost always fatal after symptoms begin (

- Medical care in the United States can be very expensive. Carry travel insurance that explicitly covers the United States and emergency evacuation, particularly because Lanai has limited local medical facilities (
