The historic Hanalei Pier was built in 1892 and has long been a favorite gathering place for local residents who go there to fish, swim, play music and discuss the events of the day. But it was not until 1957 when Oscar Hammerstein II and 20th Century Fox settled on Kauai as the location for the classic film, "South Pacific," that the pier came to fame. The pier was featured in the film along with other memorable North Shore locations like Lumahai Beach and Mount Makana, renamed Bali Hai in the movie.
