Hawaii's iconic Hōlei Sea Arch collapses into the ocean

Original: Hawaii’s iconic Hōlei Sea Arch collapses into Pacific Ocean

The Hōlei Sea Arch, a well-known lava rock formation on Hawaii's Big Island near Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, has collapsed into the Pacific Ocean. The natural arch, formed from ancient volcanic rock, was a popular sightseeing landmark along the Chain of Craters Road coastline. The collapse adds to ongoing changes along Hawaii's volcanic shoreline, where erosion and volcanic activity continually reshape the coast.

Why now: The loss of a famous natural landmark draws widespread public attention and concern about coastal erosion.
