This old landing is on the Hamakua coast. It was used in the 1800's for loading sugar cane, cattle, and other things onto row boats with a crane. This landing was important until the railroad to Hilo bay was built.
Persistent Trade winds here can produce high surf with faces near 15 feet for days on end. The strength and skill of the people who worked this operation must have been incredible. I was lucky enough to catch this shot while touring the coastline in my friend's little plane.
