What to pack

What November feels like

November is when the North Shore contest season opens at Haleiwa and the two-lane road out there stops moving on a good swell. Whales start trickling back into the channels near the end of the month, and Thanksgiving week fills every hotel on the island.

Real rain shows up about 3 days all month; the rest stay dry. It’s sticky — light fabrics and an afternoon break earn their keep.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 80° — bath-warm.
