Photograph of Laniaki Beach, April 1, 1946. This picture of the beach facing north (St. Joseph's not shown, but to the left) shows the huge pieces of coral broken from the reef and carried in about a mile from sea, ruining the lovely beach. The front of the house shown here was torn away. It was from the direction of the Island in the background that the wave came which demolished St. Joseph's."
