The entire island of Lanai was purchased in 1922 by [[James Dole]], at a cost of $1.1 million. Today most of the island is still owned by the Dole company <ref> http://www.netstate.com/states/geography/hi_geography.htm </ref> and much of the land is dedicated to commercial [[pineapple]] farming. <ref> http://lanai.aloha-hawaii.com/hawaii/lanai/ </ref> The tourism industry is also active on the island, which has many beautiful beaches.
