A Kula man and his son swam about a mile to shore after a shark attacked and sank their kayak Tuesday in what was described as an “unusual shark encounter.”
Daniel Sullivan called police just before 2 p.m. to report the attack that occurred while he and his 15-year-old son, Tristan, were kayaking in the Thousand Peaks area of Ukumehame.
Sullivan, who called The Maui News while waiting for police and state Department of Land and Natural Resources officers to arrive at the beach, said he and his son had launched the two-man kayak from the area along Honoapiilani Highway across from the Lahaina Pali Trail at 11:35 a.m.
