Things To Do
Immerse yourself in Hawaii as it once was.  Walk the Royal Grounds, observe a cultural demonstration, or simply relax and enjoy a sunset at the picnic area. These are just a few of the many activities to be enjoyed at Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park.

Did You Know?
Did you know that Kamehameha I died in 1819? Soon after his death, the kapu system and old religions of Hawai'i were discontinued. The sanctuary at Pu'uhonua o Honaunau was one of the few of the old religious sites that endured.
