The kinkiest cities in Hawaii are Kihei and Ewa Beach for 2026 based on Saturday Night Science.

Since the 1950s ended, most of America has let its guard down and people have become a whole lot kinkier.

Searches for sex online are at an all-time high, and with sexting, flexting, and every other new way of communicating our desires online, it’s pretty clear that we can’t get enough.

Whether we want to admit it or not.

Which of the places in Hawaii are the kinkiest? We can tell by looking at who is buying the most ‘kinky’ stuff online.

Based on the number of purchases from Adam & Eve per capita, we came up with this list as the 10 kinkiest cities in the Aloha State.

Where Hawaii’s kinkiest cities are

Saturday Night Science

Methodology: How We Measured The Kinkiest Cities In The Aloha State

In order to rank how kinky a city is, we simply had to see which cities in Hawaii purchased the most sex toys from online erotic adult toy and novelty powerhouse Adam & Eve. They provided us with purchase information in 2015.

    It’s pretty easy to figure it out, actually, when you know the cities in Hawaii are buying adult toys.

    Saturday Night Science at its finest — there’s no better way to solve this argument at a bar.

    We calculated all the data on a per capita basis, meaning these are orders on a per-person basis, not a raw number of total dollars spent or number of orders. That keeps us from ranking the largest cities at the top since they have the most people.

    Additionally, we only looked at the 14 places in Hawaii with over 6,000 people.

    The kinkiest cities in Hawaii based on this methodology are Kihei, Ewa Beach, Lahaina, Pearl City, Pukalani, Kahului, Lihue, Kapolei, Hilo, and Waipahu.
