For our project, we decided to do the Punaluu Black Sand Beach. Punaluu is on the main island of Hawaii. Punaluu Black sand beaches started to form over hundreds or thousands of years. On Hawaii, there is a hot spot underneath it. There is a non-explosive volcano that spills out lava over thousands of years with hundreds of small eruptions each day. A cliff of black igneous rock formed where the lava meets the ocean. Then over many hundred of years, it is slowly eroded away by the big and small waves.
