Things To Do: The shuttle from Maui to Lanai
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • When the ferry drops you off, try to find the complimentry shuttle to Manale Bay.
    There are 5 dollar shuttles to the hotel and back, and 10 dollar shuttles which will take you into town (we took that and our driver forget to drop us off...not alot happeing there, didn't even realize it was the town, and we TOLD him we needed to be told where to get off)
    However, what we learned, is that if you even EAT at Manele Bay, you are now a guest, and at your disposal are shuttles on demand! Up to the golf course for lunch (wonderful) up to the hotel, down to the beach. No schedule to follow. They are there for YOU. on YOUR schedule.
    Love to know if that is true. After our encouter with the paid shuttle driver, our own shuttle was taken care of. These people know how to cater!

    Things To Do: Snorkel!!
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • The Bay at Manele has some wonderful snorkeling.
    Shuttle dropped us off at the lobby which was astounding. We walked through the pool area and down the path to the bay. Lovely.

    Things To Do: Snorkel More
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • down the path to the beach, look towards the left side of the cove. You will see stairs. this is NOT where we entered, but the finest snorkeling is in that area. It's a bit of a trek from the path over there, so we put our stuff just a little further than the camping area and it was an easy swim.
    If there are a lot of surfers there, the snorkeling will not be at it's best. But there was only one guy out there so we went.
    BEAUTIFUL CHANNELS in the coral. Just watch for a slight current in shallow spots which bring you uncomfortably close to the tops of the coral. Easy enough to swim out of if you feel uneasy.

    Things To Do: come back totally spent
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • I understand the later in the day you return to Maui, the choppier the seas. Keep that in mind. we took the 4:30 back and it was under control, but pretty rough.
    After a day in the sun (and we hear, and believe that it's hotter in Lanai than in Maui) each of us napped against each other on the outside deck of the ferry.
    Never felt a chill

    Address: Catch the scheduled ferry at the dock
    Directions: shuttles will take you there. Pay shuttle gets you there at 3:45 for the 4:30 departure, which is a long wait.
    Eat at "the challenge" and they will call you a private shuttle, no charge. You are now a 'guest' and get all priviledges, except the pool.

     i've been here once and didn't really care for it :/. maybe it was the lack of things to do or probably because i was on someone elses time lol.
