There's an active volcano on the "big" island (the island of Hawaii itself) 
that's been spouting for quite a few years.  I was there in 1991 ... after 
walking across 2 miles of hardened lava (some of which was quite hot from 
the active flow underneath) and breathing sulfurous fumes, we got to a spot 
where you could watch a spout of lava come out of the side of the ledge and 
pour into the ocean, about 5 feet below, causing a huge plume of steam and 
sulfurous smoke.  It was NOT slow moving, but it was exciting.

I believe it's still flowing, though the exact landscape, and what you can 
see, changes all the time.
