Best Time to Visit

Best Time to Visit

Oahu has great weather all year round and is considered to be one of Hawaii's best islands. However, the winter from November until March can be more rainy, especially on the island's east coast, so this season can be considered as a less popular one with visitors. While the winter offers the best chances for whale watching, the period between May and September is the warmest, and thus tourists' favorite. Do consider traveling in off-season periods, as prices will be lower and both sights and streets less crowded.
