Seems like it would have to be a complete guess.

I guess I'll say Polihale Beach, Kauai, Hawaii.
Absolutely no reason though other than a completely random guess and that it's one of my favorite beaches on the planet. 
There is a HA property on Kauai.

Wow, it would be amazing if it does turn out to be Kauai!

I think I'll go with Poipu Beach, Kauai, Hawaii today.

The snorkeling at that beach is to die for! And it's just a mile from the awesome Grand Hyatt Kauai!

If it's indeed Kauai I'm thinking Poipu Beach, but here's a couple pictures I took at Polihale (Pronounced Pole-ih-haal-eee) for your viewing pleasure...

What did everyone else guess for today?

It seems the answer is "Hanalei Bay, Kauai, Hawaii"

Dan, assuming you are convinced this correct, would you resubmit with this answer? Or hope they take Kauai, hawaii from our Day 1 answer and go with that?

It's not Hanalei Bay.
I'm flipping through my pictures...
It can definitely be Ke'e Beach, but the more I think about the clues the more I think the answer is just "Kauai, Hawaii, USA."
There is a beach where you can go snorkeling or spelunking, but there's no golf there and definitely no 5,000 ft peak on the beach...so plain old kauai it is for today.

Hopefully I'll get credit for Kauai from day 1, we'll see.

But on day 1 you (and I ;D) wrote Polihale beach, Kauai, which is technically different than Kauai Beach, so why do you think you will get it right for day 1?

They obviously don't check over each answer.  They have a system that scans for keywords, like Kauai.

I would assume any answer with Kauai in it would get credit, but it is possible that because I also wrote Polihale or Poipu beach that it won't give credit, depending on how their system is set up.

Wanna provide a wild guess for tomorrow's answer? If you guess it today, you get a million PC points (just kidding, although it still would only be worth $6000)
