Gorgeous, aside from the Kona Capt. Cook boat that takes you out into the middle of the gorgeous bay, this place, just down from Mauna Lani hotel is the best. So sad to see all the dead coral though - really a shame.
The coral on this beach is indeed struggling, partly because many visitors are unaware that the sunscreen they bring from the mainland can be harmful to coral reefs.
Amazing, Igor! Thanks for sharing 🐟🐡

Yeah, coral wasn't in a great shape there. Honokaope Bay, which is right next to it, looks much healthier.
