Kaunakakai - Kapuaiwa Grove / Coconut Grove

This coconut grove is located on the lagoon, west of Kaunakakai. It is one of the largest palm groves in Hawaii and originally consisted of 1000 trees planted there by order of King Kamehameha V.

Signs are positioned on the edge of the grove warning of the danger of falling coconuts. Kapuaiwa roughly means "mysterious taboo."

On the opposite side of the road are six churches and a Bible school, built mainly of wood, where services are held on Sundays.
