September forms part of Hawaii´s summer season, which is called ’Kau’.September shares the first ranking with August for being the
hottest month. Daytime high temperatures rise up to 90°F and
nighttime temperatures are in the low 70°F. So it´s beautifully warm with lots of
9 daily sunshine hours. The ocean is also at its highest
water temperature of a nice and warm 81°F.September is also the last drier month- the number of
rainy days (7) and amount of rainfall rises in the following months. Given the dry weather conditions, the
waterfalls, in case you are interested in seeing them, are less strong in their appearance. The month of September also forms
part of the hurricane season. But
Hawaii is statistically a safe location and hardly ever hit by these.
Finally, it´s worth mentioning that September is one of the
least busy months on Hawaii as the school summer break comes to an end. Hotels and flights are cheaper. If you are into canoeing you could visit the
Queen Liliuokalani Canoe Races.
