A little disappointed in the way the museum is set up and there's also no bathroom we were told we had to drive clear up the road to the lookout public bathrooms. Also the person that guided us gave my son some incorrect information about a shell that he had found and showed her a very clear and close up photo (and returned to the sea unharmed) saying that it was poisonous and potentially lethal and it couldn't be taken back to the mainland neither which was true. Then we heard later from someone that had also visited the museum after us, she was still talking about my son as if he was an idiot tourist (which he's not) which was upsetting to him to hear. This was our fourth trip to Molokai and approximately 10th trip to the islands. Despite that the sugar mill and museum is a little interesting if you don't have a lot of time to kill I would save your money and time and skip it as there's many other things on the island more interesting to see.

A nice insight into Molokai history. The gift shop has a great Ukulele tutorial DVD for $8, a pretty sleek deal.

The grounds of this museum are well kept and a good amount of history of the area found here. Meyer was a very community minded person and had a heart of a servant. History of Hansen's disease and the plight of the people at Kalaupapa is mentioned here in detail. Interesting to see the machinery of the sugar industry.

Friendly and small museum about the sugar mill and Kalaupapa history. Cash only for the admission.

Only $5 to see history on the Sugarmill and walk through but my favorite part was all the pictures of families and the Kalaupapa peninsula

Very well documented history of the sugar history on Moloka'i. There was not much to see as far as the coffees of Moloka'i but plenty to buy.

The folks working at the museum treated us so well! Noe guided us around the museum and talked through many photos and history with us. The space has a large number of historical photos from Kalaupapa and a good number of artifacts from all over Molokai.

What can I say? It's home. I'm from Moloka'i. It never gets old, and I feel very blessed that, for the most part, much of life at home stays the same. I'm friends with the families around the way from the museum and also friends with the family who started the sugar mill. I can't complain...
I've bounced between home and stateside a lot, primarily due to the performing that I do on all sides of the pond. But one glorious aspect of going home that ALWAYS brings a smile to my face is that Moloka'i naturally slows me down. There is no hectic pace to deal with. No traffic, no crowded lines, just home. Friends and family are always a sight for sore eyes and the cherry on top of it all.....cell service is horrible. I love it.
Everything closes early, and you just get to relax. Nobody is blowing up your phone. Getting bombarded with non-stop texting is non-existent, and social media can just pucker up and suck wind.
You can actually put your personal devices down for days at a time and forget about them. Plus, most times when I'm visiting with those close to me, we're eating from the land. Everyone I know has fruit and/or veggies growing in their yard, and those that don't hunt & fish. We all share. It's the only place I go to frequently that the food is fresher than farm to table. It's literally land & sea to mouth.
I eat better, sleep better, feel better, and always leave better than I was when I first arrived. Never fails. It's my slice of paradise. Period.
The good thing for everyone else is that if it's too slow for you or Moloka'i is not your cup of tea, there are 5 other islands that have more things to do and more stuff to see. Go for it, knock yourself out! It's just as easy to leave Moloka'i as it was to get there. Just remember if you're gonna hang out, be kind & enjoy what Moloka'i has to offer. The only person who can ruin your trip is you.
Ok, enough talk, there's a spot at Papohaku Beach with my name on it and no one else around for at least a couple of miles. Aloha....
