When you land
Things to do in Molokai
Kaunakakai is the main town on Molokai, a rural island between Oahu and Maui known as the Friendly Isle. Its single main street holds a few shops, a bakery and local eateries, and the long wharf reaches across the reef into the channel. The island has no high-rise hotels and no traffic lights, and many residents are Native Hawaiian, with ancient fishponds along the south shore, small farms and ranch land and a strong commitment to keeping the island rural. Agriculture, fishing, small businesses and a modest amount of tourism support the economy.
