Little London Posted November 6, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Can you please help me, we are going to cruise to Hawaii and want to know which is the best month to do this in. We have the choice of January or July/August/September. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted November 7, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 7, 2013 The weather is about the same year round....in Jan, you will have a chance to see humpback whales, as they winter in Hawaii.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan-M Posted November 7, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Here's a link to a site that describes the average monthly weather in Hawaii. July, August and September are the hottest months, but even in January, I don't think you'll be complaining about cool weather...although typically there is more rainfall than in the summer months. We were in Hawaii in March/April and again in October this year, and had great weather both times, but the ocean temp was about 5°F warmer in Oct. than in the spring ... very nice for staying in longer for swimming and snorkelling. As CD mentions, the whales will be there in Jan. and they are a big highlight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted November 7, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 7, 2013 For me, my priority is the humpbacks. :) I have gone in Nov (too early) Dec, Jan and Feb. Multiple times. I also, try and snorkel every day, with trips usually 3 weeks. Water is a little cooler, I use my wet suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakota Traveler Posted November 7, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 7, 2013 We love Jan/Feb timeframe. For us it's a good time to leave winter weather behind for a few weeks and go whale watching. DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted November 8, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 8, 2013 You may want to go in Jan or Feb when the weather there is very nice and it is winter where you live. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnchkn11 Posted November 8, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I vote January. You will see lots of whales (even from shore) and big waves. We went in March and had this experience. The weather was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
