Hawaii is primarily located on the Pacific Plate, which is the largest tectonic plate in the world. The Hawaiian Islands were formed by volcanic activity associated with a hotspot in the middle of the Pacific Plate. While the Pacific Plate is the dominant plate in the region, it interacts with smaller plates, such as the Juan de Fuca Plate and the North American Plate, to the north and northeast, respectively. However, the primary geological activity in Hawaii is driven by the Pacific Plate and the volcanic hotspot beneath it.
