The lavish beach resort of Oahu is known as the island’s gathering place, as it is the most developed of all the areas of Hawaii and it is the centre of both government and culture. Here urban living, natural beauty, and rural communities come together in a fusion of coexistence, topped with cocktail umbrellas.
If you’re a nature lover, then you’ll enjoy the abundance of waves for surfers, underwater exploration for snorkelers, and mountains for hikers span the entire base of this heavenly paradise. Coral bays, sandy beaches, and looming volcanoes are in your midst here, as well as gorgeous green tropical forests, steeped in species diversity. So whether you’re looking to experience Hawaii’s raw nature, or just craving to immerse yourself in the pleasantries of a ukulele band, Oahu is your place.
Seasonal climate doesn’t really exist here. As with most of Hawaii’s islands, the weather is inviting all year round. With temperatures always ranging between 21-27 degrees, there’s no bad time to book a flight to Oahu, especially if you’re looking to escape winter blues. Humidity spikes a bit in the summertime (April to October), but not unbearably. November to March bring more rain than any other time of the year, and the Kona winds come in through the mountain ranges to cool things down.
The best time to book flights to Oahu is undoubtedly between May and September. Even though this beautiful island is gorgeous the entire year round, summer remains the quintessential time for vacationers to enjoy the bliss of the lush landscape.
Peak Season
If you’re booking Oahu flights in the summer, then you’ll experience the perfection of tropical paradise. The months of June, July, and August bring balmy days and steamy nights, perfect for enjoying every second of your trip outside. So grab a pina colada, head to the beach, and relax.
Off-peak Season
Although the winter here is known for its cooler temperatures, scattered rain storms, and strong winds, the island’s beautiful year-round climate makes the months of December, January, and February just a mild downgrade from summer. If you’re travelling on a budget, winter is the perfect time to find deals on hotels and cheap flights to Oahu.
The easiest way to get around Oahu is by renting a car. The rental car companies have shuttles at the airport’s arrival gate that will take you straight to pick up your car. Buses are labelled “TheBus” and are easy to use, running all over the island. There are schedules posted at every stop. You can also rent a bike, but watch out for traffic, as conditions can change quickly.
