I don't think that's an apt metric. I could give you a ranking by size if that's useful

Nah cmon some have to be better than others. At least rank the big 5 kauai oahu maui lanai hawaii.

This bort was founded on the principle of prestige whoring

For me it basically goes by age, b/c the oldest ones have been most sculpted into dramatic topography, and accumulated the best beaches. So Hawaii is the worst, and Oahu and Kauai are the best, with Oahu taking the lead because there's more stuff to do, and a slightly higher concentration of WOCs.

Damn. The Maui shade here is incredible.

What about Midway Atoll you can get even older imo. When is an island old enough but not too old?

I don't "get" Maui. It's fine, but it's not as scenic as Oahu, for example.

Once they get too old they get down to sea level. So Midway is def too old.

Maui is all about the resort culture imo. It's for White Lotusmos. What little scenic perfect beaches there are got scooped up by the big hotels. Some people just want to be around other rich people.

I heard a lot that many people rank Kauai the best because of the verdant mountains and it just looks cool as fuck. The knock on Oahu is that it's prole af. Hnl is a big American city for better or ill. Not saying that it doesn't have anything going on but I feel like the exclusivity starts when you get out of Oahu.

You're also vastly underrating the big island. It's got everything. Rainforest, desert, volcano, white sand beach, black sand beach. Really a lot to do imo.

Yeah, but who would want a volcano, a desert, or a black sand beach in the first place?

Hilo is very poor and prole. Lots of people on the dole. Kona is full of rich Californians. There's other places like Waimea which come across as a well to do suburb.
