The Island of Moloka'i

Misaki's grocery is open on Sundays 9am-12pm. This is usually crowded. Get what you need on Saturdays. There is another small store called the General Store around the corner from Misaki's if you absolutely need something. If you fly in on a Sunday may want to bring some food with you until you can get to the store. Mokulele Airlines lets you carry on food.

There are no direct flights from the mainland. Once you have decided to visit the island Moloka'i you will need to book your flight on Mokulele Airlines (commuter plane) to Moloka'i (MKK). Usually, people fly into Honolulu or Maui and go over to the smaller terminal to Mokulele Airlines.
