Beach Erosion Project, Waikiki Beach (Kuhio Beach Sector), Oahu, Hawaii
Waikiki Beach borders the eastern end of Mamala Bay on the south coast of the island of Oahu. This 2-mile-long stretch of beach is the principal tourist destination center of the State and a major recreational beach for residents of Oahu. The plan of improvement for this 1500-foot-long Kuhio Beach Sector which is part of the overall Waikiki Beach Erosion Control Project, consists of placement of sand, construction of a promenade along the project reach, construction of a central landscaped groin and rehabilitation of the existing groin at the northern limit of the sector. The recovery and placement of sand and construction of groins would bury some marine life and cause temporary increase in turbidity of the nearshore waters.
