WorldHawaii’s iconic 550-year-old Hōlei Sea Arch collapses
Hawaii’s famous Hōlei Sea Arch has collapsed into the Pacific Ocean. The roughly 90-foot-tall formation, created about 550 years ago, was still visible from the Volcanoes National Park coast on 23 September but had disappeared by 27 September. The park service said the surrounding cliffs had shown instability for years, worsened by damage from the 2018 Kīlauea eruption and summit collapse.
