Officials from the Kaua‘i Ocean Safety Bureau have announced that the shark warning signs have been lifted at Hanalei Bay on Tuesday, due to the absence of any shark sightings in the past 24 hours.
However, lifeguards urge beachgoers to exercise caution since hazardous surf and strong rip currents still exist.
Signs had been posted Monday following a report of a large tiger shark sighted in waters off Hanalei Bay at a surf spot commonly known as “the bowl.”
