Hawaii, United States
Pakala Beach (also called "Infinities") on Kauai's west coast. Trade wind side-onshore from the NE, angling cross-shore to westerly face. Sandy beach, reef break offshore. Less crowded than windward Kauai spots. Good intermediate spot when trade winds are consistent.
The Yamase Building at the corner of Moana Road and Kaumualiʻi Highway in Waimea, Kauaʻi, was built around 1919 by an itinerant Japanese temple architect for Seiichi Yamase, a nisei son of Japanese immigrants. Despite being the only structure of its kind in Hawaiʻi, it well represents both commercial architecture in rural Hawaii and the contribution of immigrants to the growth of commerce there. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
