Weather by month
Kahului (Maui)
Hawaii
The trade winds funnel between the volcanoes and across the isthmus, which is why the afternoons blow hard and the weather changes by the mile.
The best time to come
April, May, September, and October are the value months — dry, warm, and clear of both the winter whale rush and the summer family rush. Come December through March instead if humpbacks are the reason you're getting on the plane.
