Is Hapuna Beach in Hawaii man made?
In my opinion, yes. I am born and raised on the island and know every inch of this island. If you look around at the surrounding beaches, they are not perfect like Hapuna. They all have reef and rocks in the water and rocks on the beach. No where on this island is it so sandy on the bottom besides Hapuna and Mauna Kea Beach. It's pretty obvious that Hapuna was made for the tourism industry here. But i'm not complaining I love Hapuna Beach and it's nice to actually have a safe rockless beach on the island :)
