This wild burrow lives in a small park on the shore of Kealakekua Bay, just north of Pu'uhonua o Honaunau National Historic Park. The Captain Cook Memorial is on the coastal headlands on opposite side of the bay. It was the location that Captain Cook and four other English sailers were killed in a skirmish near the point on the bay on February 14, 1779 (Rhodes and Greene, 2001). |
