The original Kaimu, Kalapana Black Sand Beach was one of Hawai‘i's "Seven Natural Wonders". Whether swimming, picnicking, playing in the sand, bodysurfing, or just "hanging loose", this beach was always a favorite place for the local families and malahinis (newcomers) to gather and enjoy one another's company. Sadly, the world famous Black Sand Beach was reclaimed by "Madame Pele" many years ago. Since 1983, lava flows from Kilauea Volcano has periodically inundated this area; adding layer upon layer of lava onto the original landscape and causing the ground to gradually rise to its current elevation. The "old" Kaimu, Kalapana Black Sand Beach now lies about 60 feet beneath the ground you are standing on.
