Hot spots are by nature in constant flux. Kauai isn't nearly far enough from the main plume to say for absolute certainty that a flare in the mantle couldn't cause the dormant volcano there to reactivate. At the very least there are seismic events to consider. There was a 6.0 quake about a week ago just outside of Kona. That is plenty to potentially cause a landslide of cave-in on Kauai. These could also cause tsunamis which could cause all sorts of issues for a bunker.

The Hawaiian Islands are an archipelago, the furthest being Kure Atoll which is about 30 million years old. The hot spot that has created this archipelago is activating volcanos on the Big Island, as well as the Kamaʻehuakanaloa Seamount.

The reason the volcanos on Kauai are extinct is the direction the Pacific tectonic plate is moving.

I made no arguments against any other type of events affecting his future crypt, only that Kauai is not an island with an active volcano.
