Climate

Hawaii is a year-round holiday destination, with high average temperatures and welcoming trade winds. The driest months are from April to September. Due to the geography of each island, micro-climates prevail and you’ll find cool alpine areas, hot, dry deserts, tropical rainforests and sun-kissed beaches all within close proximity of each other. So the winter rains from November to March don’t affect holiday arrangements, as you’re sure to find a sunny spot somewhere close by. The big-wave surf season runs from November to February, while the whale-watching season falls between December and May, with prime viewing opportunities from January to early April.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or a surf pro, join experts to ride the archipelago’s legendary waves – from the famed Waikiki Beach on Oahu, perfect for first timers, to the big swells and huge rollers that attract professional surfers from all over the world. If you’re staying on Oahu, North Shore is the prime viewing spot and location of the ‘Vans Triple Crown of Surfing’ – held in November and December - the highlight of the international surfing calendar, whilst the northern shores of Maui are famous for the unique and truly exhilarating row-in surfing.

Surfing
Marine Wildlife Encounters

Expect top-class scuba-diving and snorkeling as you head beneath Hawaii’s warm, crystalline seas, encountering an underwater kingdom of stunning marine life. The beautiful Kealakekua Bay on Big Island offers calm waters filled with a variety of fish, whilst Honanau Bay is a great spot for meeting charming Green Turtles. For hours of family snorkeling fun, Hanauma Bay on Oahu is teeming with vibrant reefs, or take a short – and scenic – boat trip from Maui to Molokini, a small, offshore island surrounded by tranquil seas. Meanwhile, Hawaii is one of the best places in the world to watch acrobatic Humpback Whales, attracted by the warm, shallow waters; fascinating, guided whale-watching excursions are available across the islands.

Marine Wildlife Encounters
Adventure and Natural Wonders

A strikingly beautiful volcanic archipelago, Hawaii is filled with natural wonders. Reach for the stars on Mauna Kea, the tallest sea mountain in the world at a staggering 4,205 meters above sea level; with an extraordinary astronomical site, inimitably clear air and little light pollution, prepare to be mesmerized as you gaze up at the dazzling stars. On Big Island, look around in awe as you hike through the striking Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, or take a self-guided hike around Akaka Falls State Park. On the island of Oahu, climb to the top of Leahi for sweeping views of Waikiki’s famous coastal strip, or take a trip to Maui Scale Haleakala - Maui’s tallest mountain - for Mother Nature’s finest sunrise.

Adventure and Natural Wonders
Art, History and Culture

Exuding warmth and passion, the timeless spirit of “aloha” prevails across the islands, whether by an artist’s brush stroke or hula dancer’s twirl. Step back in time at Lanai’s Kaunolu Village, an archaeological site of prehistoric ruins, or discover more on a fascinating tour of the Hawaii Plantation Village on Oahu. On Maui, follow the fascinating Lahaina Historic Trail through a thriving hub of art, entertainment and top-class theatre, learning the facts of the island’s agricultural past. Symbolic of Hawaii, hula is a unique, enchanting and story-telling dance that can be enjoyed at various festivals across the region, whilst the traditional Luau – a celebratory feast of food – is a must-do on any visit.

Art, History and Culture
Shopping

Though shopping may not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think of the glorious beach islands of Hawaii, the region has some great places for retail therapy. Head to vibrant Honolulu - a city where east meets west - and browse through luxury European brands and modern American fashion, alongside traditional Asian antiques and locally-made island treasures. Shop until you drop, or even take classes in lei-making and hula dancing, at the glorious Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center; explore the speciality shops and exclusive boutiques at the Victoria Ward Center; or pick up a designer treat at Luxury Row, Waikiki’s glossiest address in terms of high-end shopping.

Shopping
Food and Drink

From traditional Hawaiian Luaus and authentic eateries, to gourmet Pacific-Rim delights, Honolulu’s dining scene offers a diverse mix of sensational cuisine, thanks to Hawaii’s strong multicultural roots. Browse menus showcasing bite-size sushi creations from Japan, toppling towers of scrumptious pancakes from mainland USA, gourmet French cuisine, mouth-watering ‘farm to fork’ delights and, of course, classic island dishes. On Big Island, be sure to visit the authentic farmer’s markets, sampling the delicious regional delicacies of sweet Kula strawberries, handmade chocolates and organic cheeses.
