==Tourism== {{main|Tourism in Hawaii}} [[Tourism]] on Lāna{{okina}}i began to be prominent in more recent history as the pineapple and [[sugarcane]] industries were phased out in the islands. The number of visitors coming to the island is still relatively small, however, with around 59,000 arrivals forecast for 2016. Of all the publicly accessible Hawaiian islands, only [[Molokai|Moloka{{okina}}i]] attracts fewer visitors.<ref>[http://www.hawaiitourismauthority.org/default/assets/File/HTA%20Annual%20Report%202016%20FINAL.pdf ''Annual Report 2016''] Hawaii Tourist Authority (PDF). Retrieved 7 July 2017.</ref> {{As of|2016}}, the two [[resort]] [[hotel]]s on Lāna{{okina}}i were managed by [[Four Seasons Hotels]]; the Four Seasons Resort Lanai in [[Manele, Hawaii|Manele Bay]] at Hulupoe Beach. The Hotel Lanai in Lāna{{okina}}i City was built in 1923 by James Dole of the Hawaiian Pineapple Company as a lodge to house the executives overseeing the island's pineapple production. It was the island's only hotel until 1990. [[File:Shipwreck - Shipwreck Beach.jpg|right|thumb|Wrecked ''YOGN-42'' in Shipwreck Beach]] Lāna{{okina}}i is also home to three golf courses, one at each Four Seasons resort and a third, free course. * ''The Challenge at Manele'' borders the ocean and was designed by [[Jack Nicklaus]]. [[Bill Gates]] was married on the 12th hole tee-box at The Challenge at Manele. * ''The Experience at Koele'' is located in the mountains of Lāna{{okina}}i and was designed by noted Southern California golf course architect Ted Robinson Sr, with input from [[Greg Norman]]. * ''The Cavendish'' is a public golf course designed by E.B. Cavendish in 1947. It is a nine-hole course surrounded by Norfolk pines.<ref>{{cite web|title=Cavendish Golf Course|url=http://int.gohawaii.com/en/lanai/experiences/golf/cavendish-golf-course-lanai/|website=Go Hawaii|publisher=Hawaii Tourism Authority|access-date=2018-02-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180216025436/http://int.gohawaii.com/en/lanai/experiences/golf/cavendish-golf-course-lanai/|archive-date=2018-02-16|url-status=dead}}</ref> ''Shipwreck Beach'' on the north shore of the island is so named because of the remains of a wrecked vessel aground a short distance offshore. This is popularly referred to as a WW II [[Liberty Ship]], although it is [[YOG-42]], one of several [[concrete barge]]s built during the war.<ref>[http://www.to-hawaii.com/lanai/beaches/shipwreck-beach.php Shipwreck Beach, Lanai] Hawaii Travel Guide | To-Hawaii.com</ref>
