The island of Lana'i has a rich and interesting history dating back to the 1500s, when the mischievous son of a Maui chief moved to the island.

James Dole purchased the entire island in 1922 and turned it into a pineapple plantation, which eventually came to grow three quarters of the world's pineapples. Lana'i became known as the "Pineapple Island."

With the decrease in the price of pineapples in the 1980s, the plantation closed and Lana'i has since re-emerged as a world-class vacation destination.
