Exactly. Some of the comments amuse me. When was the last time the Hawaiian Islands were significantly impacted by a tsunami? 1960? One one island? On one coast? Volcano damage? Again, one island, non-explosive lava flows.

Kauai and/or Maui - near-zero risk, though Haleakala is technically an active volcano, iirc, with the last eruption in the 1600's.
