Beach 69

Sun shines over our favorite beach even as heavy clouds slide down the slopes of Mauna Loa to darken the sky over Captain Cook about 45 miles to the south.  Kiawe trees slip down to the sandy shore to provide shade any time of the day. Joanne and I snorkeled in crystal clear water on the morning of July 22nd, joined Michele for lunch at a nearby resort and went back to the beach for the afternoon. We returned to the beach in the late afternoon August the 2nd, our last full day on the island. 

The sign might confuse you. It reads Hapuna Beach; but the road leads to Waialea Beach, better known as  Beach 69.   I think I did some boogie boarding at Hapuna Beach during a previous trip. 

This is the sign for Waialea Beach ( Beach 69)
