Last night ABC aired the highly-anticipated two-hour premiere of the final season of Lost. Shot on the island of Oahu, the show stirred a large amount destination envy as the survivors of Oceanic Airlines Flight 815 hacked through dense jungle, hiked impossibly steep cliffs and rugged mountains, and waited (sometimes with heavy artillery) at camp on that gorgeous golden-sand beach.

To help you get Lost, we just published a special The Big Trip: Hawaii. Trips include:

– Hiking, paddling, and biking on Kauai
– Cruising from Oahu to Molokai, Lanai, and Maui on a live-aboard yacht
– Surfing and volcano-trekking on Maui
– Road-tripping the Big Island

In her research, writer Katie Arnold discovered that return visits to the archipelago are unusually high—65 percent of visitors go back (something the Lost crew knows all too well). So here's how to plan a Lost Hawaii escape now. Time travel aside, it's sure not to be your last.
