Lost Yellow Gold & Diamonds Ring at Hunakai Beach in Kahala…FOUND!!!

This ring find began when I got a call from Kaylee who lives on Oahu.  While enjoying the day at Hunakai Beach she went to brush the sand off her hands that was sticking to the suntan lotion and her Yellow Gold & Diamonds Ring flew off but she didn’t see exactly where it went.  It was sand and ground cover involved.  She initially through a Google search found our fellow ring-finder Dave Sheldon on Maui and he referred her to me knowing I lived 5 minutes from that beach.  I told Kaylee I just left work and would stop at home grab my gear and be right there for a recovery.  When I arrived Kaylee and her friend Kanoe were near the beach access and shouted over to me as I entered the beach area.  Kaylee described what happened and I immediately fired up the Nox-800 and started the search.  First target was a nice loud #9 but it took three scoops to get the target.  There was plenty of beach plant debris in the scoop but as I removed it Kaylee’s beautiful ring came into view.  Here you go!  She looked so relieved as I handed her the ring.  Short and sweet recovery!  Aloha to Kaylee and Kanoe!

Lost Gold with Amethyst Stone Ring at Hunakai Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a text from Christina who lives in Honolulu.  She said she woke up this morning and realized her ring was no longer on her finger and she never takes it off.  The only thing she could think of was when she was at Hunakai Beach the day before she’s certain the ring must of come off in shallow water.  I agreed to meet her boyfriend Hubert at the beach access and he could show me where to hunt.  When I arrived Hubert pulled up a moment later and took me to an area under four palm trees where he and Christina were at the beach.  He helped me grid the area and I began the hunt.  This beach is trashy so every shallow target in the Nox’s gold range I dug.  After completing the grid I didn’t find the ring.  Hubert had to leave to pick someone up so I told him I would remain and expand the grid.  I stood on the shoreline and watched the flow.  I was sure the ring could be more to the right so I expanded that direction.  No luck!  I decided with little hope to extend the grid out to the left and while in waist deep water I got a nice 7-8 on the Nox.  After two scoops there was Christina’s pretty amethyst gold ring in the scoop.  You never know what the beach and waves can do.  I texted her a pic to confirm the find and about an hour later it was back on her finger.  Aloha to Christina & Hubert!
