No Mall At Sharks Cove From SUMMER STORM | a collection of ukulele ditties [2005] Sharks Cove, North Shore, Oahu, Hawaii. Inspired by the 'NO MALL AT SHARKS COVE' bumper stickers and idyllic Sharks Cove itself, this song spoke out against a proposed high-intensity mall development which would have utterly destroyed the natural beauty of the area. Sharks Cove is the second most visited Marine Life Conservation District (MLCD) area on Oahu after Hanauma Bay and offers some of the best free diving and scuba diving on the North Shore. Written in Hawaii in January 2005, 'No Mall At Sharks Cove' hoped to raise awareness to help postpone development in favour of something more responsible. No Mall At Sharks Cove has now been recorded for Daniel's 2006 release OP-ED, a collection of environmentally, socially, and politically inspired songs.
