When is the best time for a Hawaiian vacation? Ask most people this question and they'll probably tell you "yesterday." Yes, Hawaii is a desirable vacation destination with beautiful weather year-round.
With that said, there are times of the year you might find better than others, depending on your preference. You might prefer a time when the weather is cooler and more mild. You might want to avoid rainy season. Or, perhaps you are on a tight budget and want to get the most for your money. Depending on your needs, there are definitely certain times of the year that are better than others.
Looking For The Best Vacation Deals
Doing Hawaii on a budget is totally possible with planning and the inside scoop on package deals. Spring through early summer (April through June) are good months to arrive if you're looking for a discount. Many people plan their trips to coincide with vacations, and also during the months from December through March, so traveling during less than peak times will not only yield better deals, but also fewer crowds. Airfare costs are almost always higher during peak seasons.
Weather And Surf
Surfing is best during the winter months, and if you are doing lots of hiking, you'll find the slightly cooler temperatures more ideal during this time. However if you don't want your activities interrupted by rain, go April through October. Keep in mind though that rain can happen anytime, and rarely puts a huge damper on things.
Bottom line: Anytime is a good time for a Hawaiian vacation. The weather is wonderful year-round and if you do your homework you can find deals on hotel rooms and activities.
