About this experience

Churches in Pahoa is a self-guided walking tour of historic and active places of worship in Pahoa, Hawaii (Big Island). The route covers roughly 1.5 miles through the town centre and its outskirts, passing buildings that date from the 1890s to the present. Each stop includes a printed placard with the congregation's founding year and architectural notes.

What to expect

  • The tour takes 60 to 90 minutes at a relaxed pace, with 12 numbered stops marked by wooden signs
  • Visitors enter three open churches during daylight hours: Pahoa Holy Rosary Church (1912), Pahoa Christian Church (1923), and the New Hope Chapel (2005)
  • The route includes the former Pahoa Japanese Buddhist Temple, now a community hall, with its original bell tower intact
  • Each placard lists the denomination, weekly service times, and the building's original construction materials, such as ohia timber or coral lime plaster
  • The walk suits history buffs and quiet travellers; benches are available at five stops, and the entire route is on paved sidewalks except a 200-metre gravel section behind the post office
