Puako beach

Puako ia a beach in the northwest of the Big Island of Hawaii. It's quite decent ashore. There are trees and palms, while views are relatively scenic. But everything is very bad in the water. Sea bottom is rocky. There is also a problem of strong low tides. So the swimming is still possible. But it won't be very comfortable. Shore and seabed: rocks, sand. [edit]
