The Big Island has something to offer year around! However, April, May, September, and October are the best months to visit if you’re hoping to beat the crowds. This is very helpful when touring the Big Island as some of the island’s top destinations have limited parking. Visiting during these months is also a great way to save money. Flights and hotel rooms tend to be cheaper during this time because there’s less demand for both of them.

Golden Week

If crowds will put a damper on your plans, try to avoid going to Hawaii from April 29th through May 6th. That week has multiple Japanese holidays, and many Japanese people use the week to travel to different places including Hawaii. However, the rest of April and May are still considered part of the low season.
