Things To Know Before Visiting Hawaii - Travel Guide

Moloka’i

The Friendly Isle, as Moloka’i is known, has a much more rural vibe than O’ahu. It's a bedrock of pineapple production, and is also celebrated as the birthplace of the hula dance. Fittingly, Moloka'i hosts a hula festival every year.Moloka’i has been somewhat more resistant to tourism than the other Hawaiian islands, though some visitors do arrive on its shores.
