The Hawaiian islands really are as good as they look in the movies. Selecting which island to go, before booking a flight to Hawaii, depends on whether you want to fish, snorkel and scuba dive, hike, surf, beachcomb, climb cliffs, take in some history, party — the list goes on and on. One thing of which you can be assured is that no matter which island you visit, the scenery is breathtaking: rain forests, sandy beaches that range in colour from white to green, volcanoes, lava beds, rain forests, verdant valleys, canyons, and cliffs.
Since temperatures in Hawaii remain constant throughout the year, it’s easy to decide when to book a Hawaii flight, but because of the islands’ isolation and range of environments, there is a vast assortment of flora and fauna. And don’t forget that some islands also have cultural and historic sites, museums, and ethnic areas such as Honolulu’s Chinatown. It’s hard to see all an island has to offer in just one trip. As more and more tourists visit Hawaii, the islands are becoming more resort like, but you can still experience their beauty and essence.
The largest island in the chain is Big Island. It is the smaller island Oahu, however, that is home to most of Hawaii’s permanent population and the state capital, Honolulu. Oahu is also the most popular tourist destination. The other inhabited islands which each have something special to offer are Maui, Molokai, and Kauai.

Year-round temperatures typically range from the low 20s to high 20s (Celsius).There are two seasons, dry and rainy. The rainy season runs from November to March, and the dry season is the rest of the year, although there is some rain, especially in the rain forests.June to November is the time for hurricanes. The islands’ valleys, coastal plains, and mountain peaks create microclimates. For example, Hilo gets 450cm of rainfall a year, but Puako, 60 miles from Hilo, gets less than 15cm a year.
Peak Season:
Prices are high and the resorts are fully booked from mid-December through March and sometimes into April. The last two weeks of December are particularly busy in Hawaii. The summer school holidays brings a lot of families to Hawaii, but you can get better deals on packages and airline and hotel rates than in winter.
Off Season:
Cheap flights to Hawaii are available in the spring and autumn, mid-April to mid-June and September to mid-December, which is also the best weather. However, if you’re coming the last weekend of April, book your reservations early as that is Japan’s Golden Week (four national holidays in one week), and the islands are very busy with Japanese visitors.

Oahu has a bus system, and taxis are available on the larger islands, but it can be very expensive taking a taxi for a long distance. You’ll probably want to rent a car, possibly even on Oahu.
Except for Lanai, Hawaiian car-rental rates tend to be reasonable, but petrol prices are high. Traffic on Oahu is heavy; there are approximately 400 cars for every kilometre of road on Oahu. If you do rent a car, make sure to avoid rush hour. Interisland airlines offer several trips a day for travelling from one island to another.
Another option is to go by boat: the Molokai ferry goes back and forth to Maui, and the Lahaina-Lanai Ferry provides service between Maui and Lanai.
