July 22, 2011 - Not Done Yet

Boogie boarders at La'aloa Beach, south of Kailua-Kona on Hawaii, continue to ride the waves even after the sun has gone down.

La'aloa Beach - "Very Sacred" in Hawaiian - is also known as Magic Sands, White Sands or Disappearing Sands.  The sand on the small beach can disappear in the span of a day when serious surf conditions are present, but returns slowly once things have calmed down.
