19.088°N -155.548°WHonuapo or Honuʻapo is a ghost town on the island of Hawaii in the U.S. state of Hawaii. It was a thriving port town from the 1870s to the 1930s. The port was used to transport Colocasia esculenta (taro), and sugarcane.[1] Little of the town remains today other than the pier, which was destroyed in 1946 by a tsunami.[2]
