Top Reasons to Visit Maui During Summer

Many families plan their visit to Maui during summer break, thanks to the kids being out of school and the idyllic weather. Maui’s weather is pretty consistent year-round, but visiting during the summer is the best way to avoid the unpredictable weather of the rainy winter season. With daily highs in the mid-80s, the trade winds keep things cool and perfect for days of fun in the sun:

Soak up the Sun at Family-Friendly Beaches 

Take the kids to Lahaina Baby Beach and soak up the summer sunshine! This beach is ideal for families due to the shallow offshore reef that offers calm waters for the little ones. If you want a beach with more amenities and access to snorkeling and other watersports, we recommend visiting Napili Beach.

Experience Snorkeling in Calm & Clear Waters

Snorkeling for families is best during the summer since the water is calmer and fewer storms occur. Our reefs are teeming with marine life, with hundreds of fish species, green sea turtles, dolphins, and much more! Molokini Crater is an underwater paradise with opportunities to see over 250 species of fish with the tour operator Calypso.

Enjoy Fishing with the Family

Hawaii in the summer is the best time to book a charter for trophy fish like blue marlin and yellowfin tuna. Most fishing charters are available for kids eight and up, but UFO Fishing offers an Intro to Fishing Charter where kids 5-11 can fish for free with a paying adult! 

Hike Lush Trails Together

Maui offers incredibly diverse hiking trails that wind through waterfalls, jungles, and volcanoes for all ages and abilities. Explore the island with family-friendly hikes like the Kapalua Coastal Trail and the paved Iao Needle Lookout Trail.
