Hwy 450
(near Kaunakakai Wharf)

Description

Although it's now nothing more than a pile of rubble and rocks, the ruin of a building nearby the Kaunakakai Wharf was once the summer hideaway of King Kamehameha V. Kamehameha V was the last to bear the famous name. He ruled from 1863 to 1872, assuming the throne when his brother passed away. His main accomplishment was to improve trade conditions for his country. After his death, the crown passed to Lunalilo.
