7 Most Compelling Stories of Lost Treasure

Hawaii’s Hidden Secrets

We all know Hawaii as a luxurious holiday spot – but did you know it is also home to stories of lost treasure? Perhaps the one which attracts most attention is the rumoured burial chamber of King Kamehameha. After dying in 1819, it is believed he had piles of precious stones and feathers from now extinct birds placed in the chamber. Although no-one has discovered its exact location yet, it is thought to be in a remote rainforest cave somewhere around Hawaii. The other major story of lost treasure here is the millions in gold and silver reportedly hidden in Hawaii by pirate Captain Cavendish. Believed to be somewhere near Palemano Point, this lost treasure has been keenly hunted for in recent years.
