What is the best month to vacation in Hawaii?
Hawaii is made up of micro-climates, so the weather varies significantly from island to island and from one side of an island to the other. The year-round warm weather (rarely going below the mid-70s or above the mid-80s) means Hawaii is a great destination any time of the year. So Hawaii doesn’t have an off-season.
April – September is the most popular time to visit Hawaii because these are the warmest and driest months. The ocean is calmer, giving you access to more water activities with better sailing conditions. Be prepared to pay the highest prices during these months. The islands will also be crowded, so book accommodation, tours, and rental cars in advance.
The weather in Hawaii is marginally cooler from October – March, and these are the wettest months of the year. Pro Tip: the islands’ west coasts are significantly drier than their east coasts.
October – March is whale-watching season, and the crowds and prices will be lower (though not significantly). These months have some of the largest swells of the year, so surfers will swarm the beaches.
How much does the average trip to Hawaii cost?
The average price of a one-week trip to Hawaii is around $2000 for a solo traveler, $3000 for a couple, and $4500 for a family of four.
How much does a 10-day trip to Hawaii cost?
The average price of a 10-day trip to Hawaii is around $3500 for a solo traveler, $5500 for a couple, and $10,000 for a family of four.
What should I avoid in Hawaii?
Things To Avoid When You’re in Hawaii:
1. Using non-reef-safe sunscreen
2. Touching or getting too close to seals and turtles
3. Underestimating the tide
4. Hiking on illegal trails or private land
5. Parking in non-parking spots
6. Stepping on coral
7. Bringing back lava rocks as souvenirs
Which Hawaii Island is the cheapest to visit?
Oahu and the Big Island are the most budget-friendly Hawaiian islands. You can save some additional money by doing free activities, cooking your own meals, traveling on weekdays, and visiting during the shoulder months.
What is the prettiest Hawaiian island to visit?
All four of the major Hawaiian islands – Oahu, Kauai, Big Island, and Maui – are stunning! I couldn’t choose the pretties because they all have unique and breathtaking landscapes.
Is food in Hawaii expensive?
Yes, food in Hawaii is relatively expensive. You can save some money by eating out for lunch instead of dinner.
Some of the foods Hawaii is most known for are poke, crack seed, ulu, malasadas, shave ice, and Laulau.
