Photo quests in Hawaii

What the catalogue actually holds here, and which of it is worth rearranging a day around.

Hawaii holds 13 quests across every category the catalogue keeps, with no single one of them defining the place: Food and Nature are level at three quests each.

Two of them are tier 1 — finds rather than fixtures, and the one tier whose check-in asks for PRO; the other eleven are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers nine of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway.

A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Nature quests want weather and daylight rather than opening hours, so the season decides more about a trip here than the distance does. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point.

By category

Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Hawaii quests among them.

Tier 1

The unexpected ones

The two quests in Hawaii the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures — the half of a city a guidebook has no room for.

Questions

About quests in Hawaii

How many photo quests are there in Hawaii?
13, across all seven categories the catalogue uses. The deepest groups are Nature (3), Food (3) and Beach (2). Among them: Byodo-In, Haleakalā and Capitol Modern.
What is there to do in Hawaii beyond the obvious?
2 of the 13 quests in Hawaii are tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Hawaii holds two at tier 1, two at tier 2 and nine at tier 3. The tier 1 quests here are Capitol Modern and Kaanapali Beach, which fall under Art and Beach.
Can you do all the Hawaii quests on one trip?
Not as one walk. The outermost of the 13 is 336 km from the middle of the Hawaii list, which makes this a region rather than a neighbourhood: several are a day out in their own right and are worth planning as such rather than fitted in.
Which Hawaii quests can you do for free?
11 of the 13 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 13 can be read and travelled to without paying anything — the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Hawaii means two quests: Capitol Modern and Kaanapali Beach.
How do I prove I visited a place in Hawaii?
Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Hawaii is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Byodo-In fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Hawaii sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from.
