黑色沙滩通常是怎样形成的？有两种情况：第一种情况，海浪冲刷海滩时，深色的、较重的矿物质留了下来；第二种情况则发生在怀阿纳帕纳帕州立公园的这片沙滩，玄武岩（一种黑色的火山岩）被海浪侵蚀成细小的颗粒，形成了令人惊叹的黑色沙滩。你可以在茂宜岛东侧，哈纳之路的尽头找到这个海滩。类似的黑沙滩遍布世界各地，包括阿拉斯加、加利福尼亚、希腊、哥斯达黎加、意大利、冰岛、印度尼西亚和新西兰等地。

Wai'ānapanapa State Park, Maui, Hawaii

Brooding black sand beaches are popular with photographers looking for something a little different, and Hawaii has plenty of them on offer. This famous beach at Wai'ānapanapa State Park on Maui was created when basalt, a dark volcanic rock, was eroded by waves into fine grains, creating a stunning shoreline. You'll find it on Maui's east side, toward the end of the legendary Road to Hana, a scenic 64-mile highway. You can also find black sand shores around the world, from Alaska to Greece, Costa Rica, Italy, Iceland, Indonesia, and New Zealand.
