Varhaug gamle kirkegård er en kirkegård som ligger i havgapet på gården Varhaug i Hå kommune. Kirkeplassen er fra mellomalderen. Rundt 1200 ble trolig den første kirken reist her, og det er mye som tyder på at denne ble lagt på et gammel hedensk kultsted. Flere forskjellige kirker har stått på kirkegården. Den gamle kirken ble revet i 1905 og ny kirke ble bygget på Odland.

Like utenfor kysten her var det et skipsforlis («Ingermanland») i 1842 som krevde 389 russiske liv. De fleste ble begravet på Varhaug gamle kirkegård som er fredet. Det er også reist et minnesmerke over russerne og "sjøfolk som her fikk sin grav".
