Shaded Hawaii State Map Coloring Page
Coloring ideas for Hawaii Maps
Color each Hawaiian island in a different bright color, and use deep blue for the surrounding Pacific Ocean. Add fun tropical touches like flowers, surfboards, volcanoes, or sea turtles to personalize the map. Highlight the capital, Honolulu, with a bold star or marker, and label the larger islands such as Maui, Oahu, Kauai, and the Big Island. You can also draw waves or palm trees around the edges to make the map feel alive and beachy!
On the back of the page, why not write a few fun facts about Hawaii, add drawings of what it's famous for, or create your own colorful version using your imagination?
What is Hawaii?
Hawaii is the only island state in the United States, located in the Pacific Ocean, far southwest of the mainland. It is made up of eight main islands and many smaller ones. The capital city is Honolulu, which is on the island of Oahu.
Hawaii is known for its volcanic mountains, beautiful beaches, tropical flowers, and rich cultural traditions. The state flower is the yellow hibiscus, and the state bird is the nene (Hawaiian goose). Hawaii has a population of over 1.4 million (as of July 2024).

Frequently Asked Questions
- → Why aren’t Alaska and Hawaii in their real location on the map?
On this map, Alaska and Hawaii have been moved to keep all the states together in one compact image. In reality, Alaska is far to the northwest of the continent, above Canada, and Hawaii is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, far from California. This repositioning is a common layout trick to make the map easier to read.
- → Are these maps ideal for coloring?
Yes, these maps use black borders only with no fill background, making them perfect for coloring activities with crayons or markers.
- → Are these maps good for school projects?
Yes! The printable state maps can be used in classrooms, geography assignments, or homeschooling lessons.
- → What materials do I need to use these maps?
Just print them and use crayons, colored pencils, or markers. Lamination and dry-erase markers can make them reusable.
- → Can I resize or adjust these printables before printing?
Yes, you can change the scale or fit settings in your printer options to make the printables smaller or larger as needed. This works for coloring pages, mazes, sudoku, worksheets, and more.
- → How can I print these printables?
Click on the download PDF button to save the file to your device. Open it using a web browser or PDF viewer like Adobe Acrobat Reader. Then, click the print icon or use the shortcut (usually Ctrl+P or Cmd+P), choose your printer, adjust settings (orientation, margins, number of copies, etc.), and print.
- → Why is there still a margin even when I selected full page with 0 margins?
This may happen if your printer doesn’t support borderless printing. Many home printers add a small automatic margin. To fix this, check if your printer allows borderless printing or adjust the layout to fit inside the printable area.
