Hawaii and rock

Doesn't apply ... rock on the beach will be coralline in nature generally and therefore not subject to Pele ... though if you take a lava rock home, all bets are off. Auwe!
And then, there's this:

On the SouthEast corner of the island is Ko Olina marina.
There is a public park there with parking.
Right near the park is a man-made jetty that is covered with coral rubble with lots of good sized pieces.
Here's a good map

You can see the jetty hanging down from the top of the harbor opening.

Be very careful. There are some strict rules in Hawaii. You might want to check some official sites and literature.

Penalties
First violations are subject to a fine of up to $1,000 and/or thirty days in jail, plus up to $1,000 per specimen taken illegally. Penalties increase for subsequent violations.

Aloha Travis! Want me to bring you some back too? I took rock out years ago and it was OK. Just want to make sure I still can. We are going to the giant aquarium restaurant tonight...I can't wait. Off of a bridge, I fed a file fish that was over a foot long. Huge tangs, Moorish idols, parrot fish, all feeding on the side of this bridge. This place...crazy! Since my DIY rock was a bust I need rock.
Jeff and others, thanks for the info. Will try and find it. They have 2 places that you can get your water from a spicket from the ocean. One is free! No reef tanks allowed but free water...woohooo!

Aloha! I woudn't mind a couple smaller pieces. Mainly for looks, really. Most of all, I would love to see pictures! Next time, stuff me in a suitcase and smuggle me there

This is where we had lunch. OMG. And the food was great. Saw huge fish of all kinds. Had unicorn tangs doing syncronized swimming for us.
I am in heaven.

I watched the airport security remove a large rock from a passenger's bag, and they were not very happy! Aside from the curse they said would follow you, DO NOT TRY TO CARRY ON! Big rock= potential weapon. Thats just what they said.

someone that was going to hawaii told me that you can take one gallon of rock(displacement?) per person per day.
