Hawaii Tsunami
March 11, 2011
The tsunami waves that struck Hawaii earlier this morning inundated the Royal Courtyard at Pu`ukohola Heiau National Historic Site.
Though the larger waves have already hit Hawaii, smaller surges are still pushing in to the park as of 11:00am this morning.
The water is seen receding quickly just a short time ago.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you weather the tsunami. The visits I made to the National Parks in Hawai’i (especially the Big Island) are some of my fondest travel memories, and I hope everyone’s safe and sound.
We appreciate it so much! Our parks are still assessing the situation at this time, but this is just part of the experience of living and working in Hawaii. Whether it’s volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, hurricanes or tsunamis, we’re pretty busy a lot of the time on this island! Mahalo nui loa & Aloha!
We were just there last month, sorry for your lost, hope you will recover soon, so more people can appreciate the site. Our prayers are with you good people,from the mainland.
My heart goes out to the west side folks who have suffered losses once again. Sad to see that Palace got hit again. The coming weeks will
Prove challeging, but surely we will all pull together

Oh my goodness….best of luck and please be careful as the days go on since there could be more aftershocks or quakes generating tsunamis!
