This is the latest chapter here on the erosion issue.  Despite being completely undercut, these two cocos are still trying to hang on.  One has adapted by developing a dogleg turn in the trunk.  Earlier photographs from 2001 show these trees some ten feet from the high tide line.   222410175_7dbd055ab8_o.jpg

Dear Norm  :)

Very nice pictures & if it is a private beach,then one can

try placeing medium sized rock bolders in the foot of those

cocos nucifera.so that on high tides the sand does not get

washed away.

Love,

Kris.

love conquers all..

Kris,

Actually, as far as I know, all beaches in Hawaii are public. But that doesn't mean you couldn't put some rocks there anyway. But I'll leave that for Norm. I'm on a different island... :)
