No, Honolulu is the only large city in Hawaii, and it is on Oahu. Hilo is a smaller city, and Kona is even smaller but seems bigger because it is the tourist hub- has both a Walmart and a Target, so it has made the big time.

I really liked the Volcano area. There is a winery there that does do wine tasting. There's the Volcano National Park that you can hike and walk through a tunnel in the Voclano. On that hike there is a tourist stop that you can get info on volcanoes and the history of the islands. This are is heavily forested although there is abundance of houses. There are also B&B.

Kailua-Kona is the most sunniest coast in all of Hawaii. I've only stayed in the King Kamehameha hotal for a month

Hilo because Kona has been having alot of earthquakes lately. the biggest was a 6something (oct) and the last one was last week which was about a 5. Either way, it'll rain. Especially Hilo tho'.
