Thank you sincerely Arthur Frommer for your kind mention of Beat of Hawaii on your site this week!
We started publishing Beat of Hawaii just over three months ago. This is a generous acknowledgment of both our efforts here and our decades as travelers and travel industry observers.
Lastly, we most appreciate our readers and those who comment on our site. It is through your continued loyal support that we wake up each morning here in Hawaii and keep the Beat going.
With a new HD camera, there’s no telling where we’ll be showing up in beautiful Hawaii. For this first video the camera is turned on us. We decided to post this impromptu discussion of our upcoming Wailua Falls video. We look forward to sharing more of Hawaii with you as you meet us and get to know us better.
We love to share our local knowledge of the islands and invite you to ask questions by contacting us here.
Q: We are hoping to come to Hawaii the end of next month (February) and are wondering what to expect weather-wise.
A: The traditional rainy months are November to early December and March. During those months you can expect state-wide rainfall that is unavoidable, and which can typically last for one or two weeks, day and night. When coming during those times, it is wise to plan for alternate activities. We’ll be posting more on these ideas soon. So far this season, the island chain has had consistent rain from about Thanksgiving through New Years, which was longer than normal.
