Terminalia catappa
An almond tree with edible, although unripe, nuts. The tree grows up to 115 ft. tall.
Seen on a Pacific bay front, but Indian almond is native to the tropical regions of Asia, Africa and Australia.
This tree was at sea level with a black sand beach.
Also called Indian almond. With a tasty, edible, almond-like kernel, but a lot of work to remove the husk.
