When to visit Maui

Wondering when to visit and travel to Maui? If you've already narrowed your choices of islands down to Maui, then you're probably wondering what time of year to visit the island.

Weather wise, you'll be happy to know that Maui's warm tropical climate is fairly consistent year round with daytime highs in the mid-80's to mid-70's during the summer and winter respectively. At the many coastal resorts that dot the island at sea level, temperatures rarely dip below 60F during even the coldest of winter. Year round the weather on Maui is typically great for visitors. The only time Maui's weather is unpleasant is if a winter storm blankets the island with clouds and rain, but those are infrequent and shouldn't be too much of a concern. The majority of the rain that Maui receives falls in the winter months, from November through March. Rain showers are typically short and are quickly followed by more sunshine and, if you're lucky, rainbows. Rainbows are always said to be a sign of good luck in the islands, meaning you'll return one day if you spot one. Below we've included two graphics from the Weather Channel that should help you gauge what the weather will be like during your visit. Please remember weather conditions can be drastically different depending on the geography of the island.
