Waiola Cemetery

Adjacent to the Waiola Church, this cemetery holds several notables, including Governor Hoapili, who ordered the original church to be built; Reverend William Richards, Lahaina’s first missionary; and Queen Keʻopuolani, wife of Kamehameha the Great and mother of kings Kamehameha II and III. Fragrant, blooming plumeria trees add a lovely touch.
