A Stunning Start to Winter on Hawaiʻi Island

The first snow of the season has settled on Mauna Kea, and with it comes one of the most striking contrasts anywhere in the Pacific. While much of the world imagines Hawaiʻi as endless sunshine and warm ocean air, the summit of Mauna Kea regularly reminds us that the islands hold a far greater range of climates than many realize. Rising to nearly 14,000 feet, the mountain is high enough to receive measurable snowfall each winter, transforming the iconic volcanic peak into a momentary alpine scene.

Average Snowfall on Mauna Kea

Although snowfall is light compared to mainland mountain ranges, Mauna Kea does receive snow almost every year. One of the most widely referenced estimates puts the…

What to Expect This La Niña Season

Winter on Maui always feels a little different from the rest of the year, and this season comes with an extra twist. With La Niña conditions developing across the Pacific, Maui is expecting a wetter and more dynamic winter than usual. That means stronger surf, more frequent rain, and cooler nights that locals notice instantly and visitors often find refreshing.

A Wetter Season Ahead

La Niña occurs when ocean temperatures along the equator cool down, which changes global weather patterns. For Hawaii, that often brings wetter-than-normal conditions and slightly cooler trade winds. This winter, meteorologists expect heavier showers and greener landscapes across much of Maui. Click here for a link from National…

First Humpback Spotted Off Maui Marks the Start of the Season

Maui just received one of its favorite fall homecomings: the first humpback whale of the season has been spotted off Ka‘anapali. The sighting marks the beginning of months filled with tail slaps, breaches, and spouts along our coastlines. For locals, it’s the official signal that whale season has arrived. For visitors, it’s a reminder that there’s no better time to experience the magic of the Valley Isle.

The Migration and Its Magic

Every year, humpback whales travel more than 3,000 miles from the icy feeding grounds of Alaska to the warm, sheltered waters of Hawai‘i. Here, in the ʻAuʻau Channel between Maui, Lānaʻi, and Kahoʻolawe, they breed, give birth, and raise their calves.…

September on Maui is often seen as a time of transition. The summer crowds taper off, children are back in school, and the island settles into a quieter rhythm before the holiday season.

Less Competition, More Opportunity

During the busy summer months, Maui’s open houses and showings can feel crowded with visitors mixing vacation plans with property tours. By early September, that energy cools, giving serious buyers more breathing room. Fewer competing offers mean more negotiating power and the ability to take your time comparing…
