No. Penguins do not live in Hawaii, or anywhere else in the US.

The colony found in the Galapagos Islands is the farthest north that any species of penguin lives, with the remainder ranging in various areas of the Southern Hemisphere. Several species are found withiin the Antarctic Circle, while numerous species are also found in the temperate zones of New Zealand, southern Australia and South America.

There are 17 different kind of penguins living all over the world but the majority of them are in zoos. In the northern hemisphere there are no penguins living in the wild. Contrary to popular belief there are no penguins at the North Pole. The northern most group of penguins live on the Galapagos Islands and are only able to survive there due to the Humboldt current which bring cold water up from the Antarctic. There are actually penguins that live in Africa, on the southern tip near the Cape of Good Hope called "African Penguins."
