Established prior to 1898 as the public cemetery for Waihi and the surrounding rural area, and the small coastal township of Waihi Beach. The Waihi Cemetery administration was vested in the Waihi Borough Council in 1902. Between 1902 and 1913 the records for the cemetery were destroyed by fire. Following local government amalgamation in 1989, ownership changed to Hauraki District Council who delegated administration to the Waihi Ward Committee.
Within the cemetery are sections for Ashes Burials, Burials, and Returned Services Association (RSA) Burials.
There are approximately 35 interments and 30 ashes burials each year.
