Locals say it’s the worst erosion in over a decade, following similar damage from recent Kona Low storms. While past storms saw quick sand recovery thanks to calmer waves, experts warn this isn’t just about weather—it’s a sign of deeper trouble: rising sea levels are slowly stealing shorelines, making beaches more vulnerable and long-term recovery harder than ever.
