Description
Glorious light and storm surge at this amazing beach on the North Shore of Kauai. Amazing to behold.
Lumaha'i Beach, Hanalei North Shore ,Kauai. This long stretch of white sand beach was made famous by Hollywood when Mitzi Gaynor spent her time on this beach washing that man right out of her hair, in the movie South Pacific. Lumahai is the subject of many postcards and paintings.
In Hawaiian mythology, Nāmaka (or Nā-maka-o-Kahaʻi, the eyes of Kahaʻi) appears as a sea goddess or a water spirit and she is an older sister of Pele-honua-mea.
My soul is full of longing
for the secret of the sea,
and the heart of the great ocean
sends a thrilling pulse through me.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
"We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch, we are going back from whence we came" John F. Kennedy
"In one drop of water are found all the secrets of all the oceans". Kahlil Gibran
The beauty of ocean waves and the infinite shapes and textures that it offers...when we take the time to watch and observe its creations.
In the mythology of old Hawaii, Kanaloa was the god of the ocean, a healer god, and the close companion of Kane, the god of creation.
