Good question.
Is it because, from the link, “Beach warning signs are posted by safety officials at lifeguard protected beaches?” Is there some kind of legal issue with county posting signs at non lifeguard protected beaches/places?
Doesn’t Mackenzie have warning signs about high surf?

Hey, at least you guys have a pool. Down south, here in Discovery Harbor, we have nothing, and that will never change. We aren't allowed to build anything, not even one tiny store on the golf course. Plus, our ocean sources outside of Whittington are also dangerous, Green Sand's surf hits hard and straight into the beach, there's a place called Kawi I believe, with sudden, 8 foot waves. Everything down here is rocky and very wild. I know Puna seems under developed, but you guys actually have a lot of stuff that the Discovery Harbor/Mark Twain/Waiohinu area will never have, for our lifetimes at least.

Thanks, whoever put up the new signs!
g#, are there any good farmer's markets down there? Seems like they could capitalize on the lack of other options.

The entire southern/southeastern coastline from Kumukahi to South point is one known to take many lives -- visitors and locals alike. It does not discriminate. Unlike other locales, this span of coastline plays host to very very deep waters that become shallow very fast, making for very strong currents and shorebreaks. For every visitor who may lose their life, there have been countless more divers, local fishermen, and others who have also met their sad faith in these waters. More lives will be taken. Be careful. Stay alert.
