One of my favourite beaches to photograph the sunrise and sunset. Ho’okipa Beach, along the Hana Highway on Maui’s North Shore is one of the best wind and kite surfing beaches in the world! A beautiful place to watch the professionals and to swim in the tidepools as the ocean is so clean and pure. View of Mauna Kahalawai, West Maui, Kahului Harbour and Wailuku from the Ho’okipa overlook on the east side of the beach. Note the single tall Coconut Palm tree. Many of the palms, keawe and other trees along the beaches on the north shore were uprooted due to a severe storm with high winds winter 2007.

Poponi Maui Hawai’i / On the wild beautiful North Shore of Maui near Lower Nahiku Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved “You will find me, / Though I change my name And move into the country, / Withdraw to the dark. You will find me / Should I change my form / And swim with fish In the deepest sea. You will find me / Should I fly from this world / And soar to distant galaxies / Laughing at the trail of stars I leave in my wake. You will find me, / Should I run into the distant hills / And camouflage myself In the deep, purple heather. Yes, / You will find me, / For your task consumes you / As my longing echoes to you / Through this world’s misty places. There could be no escape, / For our futures have been / Forged in spiritual steel, / Sealed in my spirit’s blood. Leave your place and work. / Set out on your best adventure. / Too much time has passed. Hear my voice on the wind. / I will look for you / As you come to find me, For we are one and the same, / Soulmates, / awaiting discovery.” / Poetry by Alison Stormwolf Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

Ho’okipa Beach Sunrise Maui Hawai’i We had a minor earthquake last night. You may read about it in my journal This morning I awoke early. Jacob and I had coffee together outside on our lanai, and as I was gazing out over the rooftops toward Ho’okipa I saw a squall rolling in over the ocean. I told him I would be back soon, kissed him and told him I love him, grabbed my camera and equipment and drove down to Ho’okipa. I was the first one on the delta below. I stayed for about three hours as the sun rose in the sky and the colours and light appeared, listening to the rocking ocean as the / waves were rolling in like thunder. It was so beautiful. This shot was taken at around 10:30 overlooking the beach gazing toward Mauna Kahalawai, I’ao Valley and the West Maui mountains as I was preparing to return home upcountry. The weather today on Maui is absolutely gorgeous. Aloha kakahiaka, good morning Maui. The destructive Tsunami of 01 April 1946 completely altered the natural features of Ho’okipa. The beautiful beach lost much of it’s wide golden sand beach and most of the Hau trees were lost. The high lava rock seawall on the seaward edge was constructed to try and protect any further damage. Ho’okipa is also world renowned for surfing, wind surfing, kite boarding and international windsurfing competitions. There are strong currents here and most of the time it is not suitable for swimming unless you a very experienced. Longshore currents are often very strong and tend to run toward the high point at the west end of the beach, which appears to be near the horizon in this image.

All rights reserved “Geological or earthquake maps of the Pacific shows that the ocean is bordered by ranges of volcanic mountains on the American side, and by a long chain of volcanic islands, such as the Aleutian, Japanese, and Formosa islands along the coast of Asia. It is also clear that between America and Asia connected islands built up by volcanic action follow what appear to be cracks in the floor of the Pacific. It is interesting to note the fact that all along the western coast of North and South America there is only a comparatively narrow strip of land between the mountain ranges and the sea, and that from the edge of this narrow seacoast there is a rapid descent in the ocean bed until it becomes one of the most profound oceanic depressions on the globe. The depth of the floor of the ocean is greater than the enormous elevation of the mountain ranges along its edge. “The Challenger” surveyors give the average depth of the Pacific Ocean as about 2,400 fathoms, while between the Caroline and Ladrone groups of islands lies a valley whose ooze-carpeted floor can be reached only by a sounding line about 25,000 feet long, and near Japan about 30,000 feet of line is needed to reach the bottom of one of the deepest pits on the globe. The German survey ship “Planet” has made the deepest sounding thus far taken. About forty sea miles off the north coast of Mindanao, the largest and most southerly of the important islands of the Philippines, the “Planet” found a depth of 32,078 feet. In other words, the Pacific Ocean where the sounding was taken has a depth of 6.07 miles, exceeding by 482 feet the greatest depth hitherto known. Out of these awful ocean depths have come the chains and groups of islands which form Polynesia. It seems absolutely necessary to recognize the cracks in the floor of the ocean through which the vast floods of lava were forced for the upbuilding of these islands. Even the coral polyps had to have the edge of a crater to work on while building the innumerable coral reefs of the Pacific. No one knows what mighty conflicts were fought between the two eternal enemies, fire and water; nor does anyone know how long they fought while these islands were being built into mountains, but there must have been ages when the skies were filled with rolling masses of clouds of steam sent up through boiling, turbulent waters with awful explosions of escaping gases before the dry land appeared on the face of the deep. It has been the modern story of creation. There were boiling seas and skies always covered with vast masses of steam clouds, then ages of mountain building at the hands of chaotic fire-rock, and the subsequent ages of the disintegration of lava, forming soil for the coming of plant and animal life. The building of these islands has been a most stupendous task, and the chains of islands resulting from the tremendous volcanic energy still exhibit immense activity. The volcanic outbreaks and earthquakes of the Japanese islands from Nippon to Formosa are so frequent as to afford an excellent field for study. The New Zealand islands have a volcanic region around Roturua which is visited by numbers of tourists every year. Islands appear and disappear in the Western Pacific. None of the islands have so good a tradition of these turbulent times as the Hawaiian group, and they have only a statement made by William Ellis in his book, “A Tour through Hawai’i,” published in 1826. He says that while on this tour around the island of Hawai’i, he stopped with John Young, who is now stated to have been an American sailor and a close friend of the great King Kamehameha I. “Mr. Young said that among many traditionary accounts of the origin of the islands, one was that in former times, when there was nothing but sea, an immense bird settled on the water and laid an egg which soon bursting produced the island Hawai’i.” It must be remembered that the Hawaiians also have the pulling up of the islands with a fishhook by the demi-god Maui, who fished up many islands in Polynesia. It has been nearly a hundred years since Ellis made the brief reference to the production of an island by the explosion of the egg, and now it is impossible to secure any enlargement of the legend. The story stands as an ancient memory of volcanic activity so mighty and so extensive as to produce islands in the time of human experience.” Author Unknown Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi
