The
day-time high temperatures in Honolulu during the summer range from an
average of 85° to 87° with night-time lows of 70° to
74°. Winter day-time high temperatures in the city are 70° to
74° and night-time lows are 65° to 69°. Travelers may want to pack a light jacket and pants for
strolling on the cooler winter evenings. Hikers planning to trek through
some of Oahu's higher elevations should be aware that there is a 3.5° drop in temperature for every thousand foot rise above sea level.
Its a good idea then to carry along a couple of layers of light clothing
for these higher elevations, especially in the winter months.
No other American
city could offer you the opportunity to surf the world's biggest waves,
snorkel a lagoon, hike into a dormant volcano, golf at a dozen
championship courses, and catch the sunset from a five-star restaurant.
All within an hours drive of your hotel room.
The key to
enjoying Oahu, as with most of the islands, is mobility. The Bus circles
the island for only a dollar. Or rent a car and get out to see the 'real'
Hawaii... the gentle waterfalls, and the craggy peaks. Discover the
'undiscovered' beaches. Boogey board at Makapuu. Ride a horse at Turtle
Bay. Watch the surfers at the Pipeline. Or sample a little fresh pineapple
juice. Have fun! Get wet! This is Hawaii. It's an adventure! |
