This website focuses
on the coastal geology of Hawaii, and more specifically on the Beaches,
Reefs, Landslides and Shoreline Features.
We need to start out by looking at the importance of the ocean to the islands of Hawaii. Geologically the ocean is very important to Hawaii. Its erosional powers shape the island's wonderful landscapes and will eventually destroy these volcanic giants that grew from the sea. In the place of these large masses will be living communities of coral and deposits of limestone.

The images, except where noted, are a product of our trip. We make them available for non-profit, educational uses. As a condition of use, we request that you inform the page author or Thom Wilch.
