Discovering Molokai Hawaii and Budget

- Molokai is a lush and peaceful island that harkens back to the original Hawaiian taro farmers and fishermen. It is also the birthplace of the hula dance and has an untouched feel to it centuries later. It’s so laidback, there’s not even a since traffic light! It is most famously known for its dark past, where the Hawaiian rulers of the day banished those afflicted with leprosy to a peninsula on the island. Today, Molokai has managed to keep traditions intact as a way of life instead of becoming another over-developed Hawaiian island.

Epidemic Sound
Big thing you forgot to mention: pretty much no AC in all condos.
We thought this wouldn’t be a big issue, but we came on a hot week and barely had any sleep because the trade wind and ceiling fans don’t do much in the way of keeping you cool at night, particuarly if you’re used to sleeping under a blanket.
Oh you’re right, it was very cool at night in February so it wasn’t top of mind but I would agree it’s a deal breaker when looking for accommodations. We’ll pin this for others to read. Thanks so much for your comment.
Molokai is magical 😊
going to Molokai in September. I can't wait. WE have been to the Hawaiian Islands over 40 times but never to Molokai. We really liked Kauai but it is now too busy for us. We want peace and quiet.
Then you’re going to love it there! September is probably even quieter. Stop by All Things Molokai in town if you can, Dave the owner has a great perspective on the island and is the go-to guy if you want to do anything. Enjoy!
Wonderful! A delightful vicarious trip for those of us who can no longer travel. Thank you.
Glad we could take you there virtually and that you enjoyed it. Appreciate your support!!
Awesome video guys! Always impressive production and narration, and I’ve always wanted to see what Molokai is like.
Thanks! We're happy that we finally got to see Molokai, it's been on Karen's list for a while. Appreciate all your support!
Thank you for this video, going to save it just in case I want to visit Moloka'i soon.
Aloha! Mahalo for the video!
Thanks for the comment and support!
And thanks for the video over Oahu as you were leaving, I havent been beck to Oahu in almost 20 years and didnt realize how extensive that beach is.
We had the same thought too! Our Waikiki video should be coming out soon so hopefully you’ll enjoy that as well 🤙 ❤️
A nicely woven blend of scenery, geography, history, and local culture. What I enjoyed most was the section with a succession of rolling surf seascapes joined by smooth transitions. I hope that in the future you will be able to find more relatively unknown places like Molokai.
Glad you noticed! We were pretty happy with that footage, the waves are mesmerizing to watch. Dreaming up other places to discover too. Thanks so much for the comment.
