It is also a chance to discover a rare glimpse into the Old Hawaii, visit breathtaking natural wonders and experience local Hawaiian culture. Some visitors decide to explore the Road to Hana by a tour, but we will advise you rent a vehicle, plan your best schedule and go on a personal adventure. A lot of websites and guidebooks lead tourist traffic on the Road to Hana, do not always take into account that some sights are placed on adjacent protected lands or private properties. The first rule for moving down the Road to Hana is to be respectful; do not litter, do not be rude to the residents of Maui’s local community and do not trespass.

When deciding on your trip to Hana, begin at Paia Town. We will advise that you arrive early in Paia, at 7:30 am, to avoid highway traffic in Hana and to achieve the most out of your day.

There are various places to check out along the highway of Hana, but we advise the following stops for first timers:

Best Time To Visit Ireland

When is the best time to go to Ireland

When is the best time to visit Ireland is the most common question asked by a tourist. Many tourist and visitors know that half the vacation fun is dependent on the weather. So what’s the weather like in Ireland? Ireland does not have the severe temperature levels that various other countries at the same latitude as Ireland have. A significant factor called the North Atlantic Drift keeps sea temperatures mild as well.While the climate could be unpredictable, it’s seldom severe.

 

Springtime & Summertime
The hottest months are July and August. Ireland gets around 18 hours of daytime with night coming in after 11pm.
Ireland is beautiful with different experiences year round. The summer months are the high season time for visitors. Both fall and spring are mid-season visiting time for vacationers.The best time to travel to Ireland would be in summer for vacation purposes,however this could cost more, we’ll get into later.

Fall & Wintertime
In fall, August to October, the greatest temperature you should be expected to deal with is around 57 ° F. Also September is known to be a warm, lighter month.Winter season temperature levels in land typically get to 46 ° F. The chilliest months are January and February. The temperature level goes down below freezing periodically, and also in addition to some cold waves, snow is present too, but very rare.

Fall and spring are mid-season times for vacationers. You’ll take pleasure in kicking bronze colored leaves that have fallen from the trees, while in spring, nature kicks right into action, flowers bloom gorgeously in the spring season. When it comes to winter, a walk through a national forest on a clear, crisp winter day would give you a glimpse of nature’s beauty here in Ireland.

How To Dress And Prepare
Go for layers that you could place on or take off as the temperature level adjustments. Bring a coat, also in summertime, bring sunglasses, comfy strolling footwear as well as an umbrella.
Of course don’t forget the sunscreen or sunblock. When the sunlight beams in Ireland, they can sometimes be intense to people that are not used to that weather, so use a high quality sunscreen and also bring a sunhat.

Best Time To Go To Ireland For Activities And Events

Now we will discuss the best time to go to Ireland for activities and events. Of course in comparison with the weather, tourists enjoy Ireland because of the activities that you can get involved in.

Ireland’s heritage
Falconry was a sporting activity amongst the aristocracy in the olden times.So it makes good sense for Dromoland Castle to provide an Institution of Falconry for tourists. On this exclusive trip you walk through the castle, when you get to the tower, you get to release an experienced hawk skyward and also call it back to your gloved clenched fist as the chieftains did in the past.The wild Atlantic captivates tourists. It covers over 1,500 miles. Consisting of possibilities to experience Ireland’s heritage along the way.

You might be wondering about the differences in activities and so on during high season which is summer against low season, winter. What about mid-season? Spring and fall? You will notice that the seasonal attractions displaying Ireland’s heritage and tradition are never closed during the year. They are open in every season. So don’t worry about changing attractions. You can experience all the same whether in low, mid, or even high season. The only difference is that in low season, winter, the pubs are much more occupied and alive. There isn’t that much of a rush and tickets are lower price. Other than that and the temperature difference, crowd sizes and ticket prices are usually the only things that vary. Of course there might be seasonal rides that change from season to season, but nothing on the grand level like Ireland’s Cliffs of Moher, which stays open year long.

Shopping and Food
Significant varieties of the best quality garments, ceramic and also keepsakes can be located throughout Ireland.
Ireland’s leading styles as well as the very best of Irish layout can be discovered in the sophisticated shops in Dublin, Brown Thomas is one of them.

Various other shops are located in Ireland including The Body Store. There is additionally a significant variety of small businesses, privately owned foods stores providing a large selection of specialized foods as well as standard Irish favorites such as smoked salmon and also remarkable farmhouse cheeses.Enjoyable cafés are popular in Ireland. You can get whatever you need in Ireland . Fill up on Ireland traditional foods on your travel, they are a staple for all visitors that come to Ireland!

Best Time To Go To Ireland For Airfare And Accommodation

Although there isn’t really a base number for flight prices since it’s based on where you live, we can try to compare some prices. Tickets will be the lowest priced when it is winter season in Ireland. This is because Ireland’s tourists decrease during the low season. This shouldn’t discourage you from going in winter!
So if prices are down during winter season. Summer season sees prices go high, and most people go during the summer so it makes sense for airlines to increase prices. If you want the perfect in-between, try to go during fall or spring time, this time there are moderate amount of people in the moderate season. Ticket prices will be slowly increasing from winter if you go in the spring but they will still be relatively cheap. If you go in the fall, the prices will be dropping from the summer since winter is approaching.

Best time to travel Ireland for saving on airfare and accommodation would have to be the low season, winter. It’s not even that cold during Ireland’s winter. All the major tourist attractions are open, and no more massive crowds! It’s a big win! However the reason most people don’t go and take this opportunity of the low prices airlines and accommodations like hotels during winter, is because people don’t usually have time off during winter, unlike summer where the children have months off for summer break.

So remember to check out Falconry to relive the era of the medieval times, where chieftains used to have their very own hawks that would obey them and perch on their arms. Or maybe explore Ireland’s shops and Cafés that welcome tourists. Remember you can stay warm at the pubs during winter months. The last thing to remember is always have fun, no matter what season you go to Ireland in!

The coldest months you’ll find in Maui are between January and February in which the average high is low eighties. However, if you are willing to trek higher up the mountains you’ll notice at least a thirty degree drop in temperatures. An interesting fact for those planning to visit is that more rain falls at night than it does during the day.

Kauai

In the summer months, you’ll find the big island reaching temperatures of the upper eighties while in the colder months the temperatures drop to lower seventies. December to March you’ll find it rains the most and the other months are typically drier.

Best Time To Travel Hawaii Islands
Oahu

Oahu Island weather is great no matter what time you’re looking to travel, as they have year around warm weather conditions. In most cases, visitors prefer this island to the others because it tends to have the better climate/weather than that of the others.

Due to the fact that Oahu is one of the most popular choices, the best time to visit the island of Oahu is around the winter holidays. Many tourists and visitors alike prefer the summer months in which they can enjoy strolling on beautiful beaches or enjoy the cool waters. The winter months provide a little relief in the higher temperatures and allow for other activities such as the hiking trails, visit historical sites and so much more.

Oahu is the capital of Hawaii and also home to famous Pearl Harbor.A Pearl Harbor tour includes visits to the Museum, USS Arizona Memorial and multiple battleships anchored on the coast.

Apart from Pearl Harbor, you can visit the Nuuanu Pali Lookout, which offers the amazing view of the Hawaii mountains. The Lookout was the site where Battle of Nuuanu was fought.This was the battle that was responsible for uniting all of the Hawaiian Islands under the only king — King Kamehameha in 1795. The statue of King Kamehameha still stands tall in Honolulu. History enthusiast will also love to pay a visit to the only royal residence of Honolulu’s Iolani Palace. It’s the only official royal residence across the whole of US.

Maui

Moving on we then have the beautiful island of Maui which often becomes a favorite location in many movies. While like its brother islands, Maui stays warm for the most part all year around. However, winter weather is usually around the sixties whereas the summer stays around the seventies and up. For this reason, anyone looking to visit this beautiful island is recommended in doing so around the summer months to get more of their visit.

Much like Oahu, most visitors that come to Maui will prefer to do so around the January month when winter is just starting to let up and bring on the coming of summer. With January weather, it provides the perfect temperatures and climates for going on beautiful scenic drives, exploring the many waterfalls and getting to see the beautiful arrays of flowers.

Maui is also best known for its beaches. The soft white beach sand and crystal clear water is a delight for both sunbathers and water sports enthusiast. Kapalua, Kaanapali, Wailea, and Maluaka (commonly called as Makena) are must visit beaches in Maui.

Kauai

The next island we’ll cover is Kauai which is by far one of the wettest islands there are. For those who’re looking for great weather, but want to escape the rain then it’s recommended to stay away between November and March. Those are the months in which it rains the most. Temperature wise, even in the winter you’ll never find this island to drop below the seventies which means unless you’re looking to avoid the rain you can visit during just about any time. However, if you’re looking to catch a magnificent sight of migrating whales, then November and March would be the best time to visit Hawaii Island.This island is great no matter the time of the year. However,  winter months are probably preferable for this island.

The island of Kauai is one of the farthest of the Hawaiian Islands. The island is better known for steep cliffs and mountainous coastline.This island is a hot spot for adventurous travelers, Most of the visitors enjoy spending time at Kauai’s Na Pali Coast State Parks and the eye-catching Waimea Canyon. It’s also a most preferred island for honeymoon couples: Couples can enjoy hiking in the day and then relax in their luxurious resort by end of the day.Kauai offers a lot of sightseeing opportunities such as visiting the canyons and going up winding trails. For this reason, visitors may want to participate in these activities when it’s cooler. in summer months, visitors may also want to participate in surfing lessons.

Hawaii

Finally, we’ll discuss Hawaii (big) island and when is the best period to visit this island. One of the biggest determining factors on when it’s the best time to visit Hawaii is based on what you’ll be visiting for. During the summer months, you’ll be less likely to encounter some of the rainy times of the year that Hawaii experiences. It’s probably more recommended that you avoid Hawaii during April and March. This is mostly due to a lot of Japanese tourists that come due to the Golden week holiday in Japan.

No matter the time of the year, the big island has a lot to offer for visitors. However, visitors often prefer to visit around January while things are still cool. It’s during this time they often engage in hiking, playing golf, and really getting out and about to explore the islands. In most cases, this is also the typical time of year when the islands (big one included) experience less rainfall than any other time of the year.

The Big Island has a large variety of places to go like, volcanoes, parks, beaches, museums, and restaurants. Hence it’s perfect for a family vacation. The kids love the Ellison S. Onizuka Center for International Astronomy and the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park , both of these are open all year-round. For families wanting to interact with wildlife, The coast of Kona offers snorkeling, dolphin watching and turtle spotting.There is just so much for this island to offer much like its name says.

Best Time To Travel Hawaii – Airfare and Accommodation

If you’re ever wondering when the best time to go to Hawaii is, then we urge you to keep reading. Depending on the time of the year each island will have a different set of prices for hotels and accommodations. Of course, no one wants to pay more than they have to especially when planning for a vacation. We’ll share you some tips on how to save money on each of the islands when it comes to planning your next big vacation to one of them.

  Hilo, Big Island Honolulu, Oahu Kahului ,Maui Kailua Kona ,Big island Lihue, Kauai
January $458 $632 $534 $619 $572
February $452 $614 $555 $606 $624
March $640 $748 $725 $725 $743
April $521 $692 $613 $641 $621
May $488 $666 $577 $585 $656
June $669 $838 $794 $790 $796
July $738 $861 $776 $805 $756
August $516 $731 $638 $644 $709
September $586 $726 $616 $637 $612
October $521 $709 $588 $706 $623
November $571 $753 $662 $686 $678
December $669 $781 $731 $816 $696

We’ll take you through each of the islands and guide you on how to spend less money on accommodations and airfare. When it comes to the islands prices and fares seems to vary on the time of year. With any of the islands, it’s recommended that you plan to book on a weekday instead of a weekend as you’ll find that it’s cheaper. Overall, you should plan to search multiple sites to find the best deal and when you see one, take it. Oahu, Hawaii, Kauai, and Maui all have small plane services between the islands that vary in price but are typically cheap when you want to travel between.

However, if you’re looking to travel from your home area then you will be paying much more. For Oahu, the winter and holiday seasons are going to cost more as many tourists from Japan are flocking to the area during that time. For most of the islands, in general, you’ll also find that any of the summer months are likely to bring higher prices due to the amount of tourism in these places. While winter prices can be fairly steep sometimes too, you’ll have to keep your eyes peeled for discounts and savings through travel brochures or check with a travel agent to better help you get a good package deal.

Ideally, planning around the weekend or holidays should save you a bit more money into your budget. Picking later flights save some money as well. For some reason when you choose to fly later in the day the prices are often a little cheaper until the morning. For those with frequent flyer cards and flight reward cards, these are a good time to save up and use those points on your flights and hotels. Together they will help you save more money and earn more points towards other things such as accommodations while staying at one of the many hotels on the islands.

Many sites will offer you package deals if you choose to combine a flight with a hotel package and more so when a car rental service is used as well. By combining all of these options, you should be well on your way to a happy cheaper vacation.
