The Four Seasons Resort Lanai in Hawaii is exclusively giving Elite Traveler readers the chance to explore the pristine ocean via its new 45-ft high-speed fishing boat, Lanai V. Adventure-seekers and those seeking relaxation will love this boat – it’s outfitted with the most high-tech scuba and snorkeling gear, but also provides a reprieve from the sandy beach.
Have your concierge reserve the four-hour fishing charter aboard Lanai V. Your captain and crew, from Lanai V Ocean Sports, will guide you to the best fishing and scuba spots around the island while you take in views of the dramatic towering landscape, and see marine life up close as you bask in the sun.
Avid fishermen will love the fresh bait sink, carbon-fiber outriggers, storage for ice and fish and fighting chairs for the bigger catches of the day. The crew will guide you to ideal spots for ahi, barracuda, mahi mahi, marlin and other Hawaiian fish. If you want to dive, all gear is on board. A Subwing is also on board – a motorized board that allows you to dive underwater or glide along the surface.
Once you’ve caught the one, cruise back to the resort to have a chef cook the perfect meal with the fish. You’ll dine under the stars on the iconic beach, Hulopoe Bay, while you listen to the lapping ocean waves and watch the spectacular Hawaiian sunset disappear into the horizon. Your chef will serve you a custom five-course menu with a wine pairing from the Coravin system (the high-tech pouring system where you can sample wine without taking out the cork). You can sample wines from any region in the world by the recommendation of a resort sommelier. For even more entertainment, you can curate a playlist, hire a solo musician or a traditional and upbeat hula dancer. This itinerary, designed exclusively for Elite Traveler readers, is the perfect way to end a superb vacation at one of Hawaii’s most beautiful resorts. From $2,999, fourseasons.com
