You could use polygon collision detection. Also you could draw your hex each with a different color, and use that as a collision surface. For example, you drew your 1st hex as color (0,0,1,255) then your 2nd as (0,0,2,255) etc. That would probably be fastest, as it's just a lookup table - pretty easy too.
