Kauai’s picturesque Hanalei Bay is temporarily off-limits following a shark incident that left a local surfer with serious leg injuries on Wednesday. The incident has drawn attention to the popular coastal spot, which remains closed as authorities assess safety conditions.
The injured surfer has been identified by family members as Chance Swanson, a 33-year-old lifeguard with Kauai Ocean Safety. Swanson, a seasoned waterman, was enjoying some time off when the unfortunate event occurred.
