Hospital Ruins
About
In Molokai, Hospital Ruins stands at 280 Home Olu Pl, Kaunakakai, HI 96748, on the island's southern side near the main town. The site is an attraction rather than a working facility, and visitors come to see the remains of an old hospital building and the stories attached to it.
Its reputation rests on that history, and the location at Kaunakakai puts it within easy reach of the island's main settlement. A 4.5 out of 5 average from 8 reviews reflects a small but positive response from those who have sought it out. Expect an informal visit with no crowds, and a setting that rewards a slow look rather than a quick stop.
Hawaii has a wetter season from November to March and a drier season from April to October, so the drier months suit exploring outdoors. The Hawaiian monk seal and green sea turtle live in Hawaiian waters and haul out on its beaches, so keep a respectful distance from any animal resting on the shore.
Kualapuu, Maunaloa, Halawa Valley and Papohaku Beach lie elsewhere on Molokai for those extending a day out. A car makes the island's scattered sights far easier to reach.
