Polihale

Polihale means the beach of the dead and is very impressive. A big rock at one end, dunes, in which in ancient times the dead were buried on the other side and big waves with dangerous riptides.
The Hawaiians believed that the in the night the dead would come out of their graves here, and the ocean would open up in a big funnel giving them the opportunity to move to the next world.
Driving to Polihale you see the Gentech companies trying out new crops, bummer.
Three surfers here are trying to survive 12 ft waves.
I have to get used to Hawaiian measurement of surf height...
