Still here? No unicorn, pick a street tire & go slow off pavement.
Tire recommendation help for both road and some offroad (2019 650 Vstrom going to Hawaii)
I'm taking my 2019 Vstrom 650 to the big island of Hawaii. Currently has bridgestone Battleax on them. It's a new to me bike and the tire treed was already low when I bought it last month, so I am in the market for new tires anyway. I'm taking it to the big island of hawaii where there will be on road, some bumpy cracked road, and some adventure riding, but I guess mostly street riding with sand and dirt to deal with. I'm unfamiliar with what would be good tires for these conditions and I'm hoping the stromtropper community can help me here. I appreciate your recommendations in advance <3.

In Alamonogo?Lots of rain
No I was thinking Hawaii where the OP's going. However! We are to get some rain today and tomorrow.
Thought I would ask. It never really dried out like I've gotten used to. I actually got into a little mud in the Manzanitas yesterday with my Shinko 705s. Pretty scary on a quarter ton bike. But I didn't go down. Honestly I've gotten a bit stronger keeping my Strom on it's feet.No I was thinking Hawaii where the OP's going. However! We are to get some rain today and tomorrow.
