Manele Bay at a Glance
Manele Bay has Lanai's only public harbor. It’s where
you arrive when you take the ferry from Maui to Lanai. The bay is
located on Lanai’s south coast, eight miles south of
Lanai City.
There is only a small white sand beach at the east end of the bay.
It's a popular destination for most visitors because it’s the
easiest beach to access while on Lanai and because it offers good
snorkeling and diving conditions.
The ocean bottom is shallow and consists of a mixture of sand and
gravel. Manele Bay is a marine preserve, established to protect and
preserve the area’s marine resources and geological features.
The bay has restrooms and showers and since the reef is so shallow,
even the young ones can have fun in the water. Manele Bay isn’t big,
even though it is the main port for all the boats to rest in.
However, it is a great location to just relax and have a picnic.

Safety Tip
Whatever beach in Hawaii you visit, please have in mind that the ocean can
be very dangerous. Never turn your back against the waves and watch out for underwater
currents and always check the surf conditions. Pay attention to signs posted on
the beach. If you are not sure about the conditions, ask the lifeguards (if any
on the beach). Please
