Best Time to Visit Hawaii and Save
Since the weather is wonderful all year, visit when demand is low and save on the cost of accommodations. Excluding holiday periods, the least expensive time is: April through mid-June; September through November. 

Save on Snorkeling

Dive in! Experiencing Hawaii’s underwater beauty shouldn’t be missed. Coral reefs attract over 450 tropical fish species, and many make their home in the protected marine sanctuaries of Oahu’s Hanauma Bay and the Big Island of Hawaii’s Kealakekua Bay. Unique opportunities are available on each island, and you’ll save if you take your snorkel gear instead of renting equipment on the islands where the rates are steep. And when

you pack your suitcase, surround the mask with clothes to protect the lens and place the fins near the outside to protect the delicate items in the center.

Do I need a rental car when I visit?
Waikiki: Only rent a car on individual days when you want to explore on your own outside of Waikiki.  High parking fees will hurt your budget  with a rental car when most attractions are either within walking distance, accessible by bus or available on sightseeing excursions. If you’re staying outside of the Waikiki hotel area on Oahu, you will want a car to get around during your vacation.

The Bus, especially on Oahu, is a great way to get around to nearly every spot you'll want to visit, and it really saves. On the other islands, there is less-frequent service: Maui, Kauai, The Big Island of Hawaii.

Maui, Kauai, The Big Island of Hawaii: Yes, you will want a rental car for your entire stay.
