Big Waves at Lumahai Beach in Kauai

Big surf hits Kauai in January... local kids play in the waves at Lumahai Beach. One person is swept out to sea and luckily rescued.
Hawaii Ocean Safety Tips:
- Waves are unpredictable - don't turn your back to the ocean.
- It may seem like fun but standing over blow holes is extremely dangerous and had led to severe injury and death.
- If the rocks you're standing on are wet, it means waves have already been there; use caution and retreat to dry ground.
- Be respectful of local fishing and diving spots.
