It’s a special place. I miss it as well.

Man I remember Big beach before it had parking or a real road. Just us and one other family the whole trip. Last time I went there was a couple thousand people, three lifeguard towers, homes and parking lots there. Ended up destroying my knee on the shore break so the lifeguard tower came in handy. Lost its magic though.

Yeah even in the years I lived there it changed. Became over crowded. I hate to say it but when Covid happened and tourists didn’t come, it was the most special Hawaii had been for me in all the years I’d been there. Dead quiet. Empty beaches. More of a real Hawaii vibe.
