Kona

Aloha!

Family members are looking into traveling to Kona in December or January. What is the weather typically like during those months? Thanks for any/all replies :)

Kona

Aloha, About 80 degrees during the day.

Kona

There must be a half-dozen websites that address your question; one of my favorites is hawaiianvacation.com. Once you are there, click on Kailua-Kona (or practically anyplace else in Hawaii) and scroll down the page for high/low monthly averages, total rainfall and typical water temperature (';slightly'; warmer than Huntington Beach!).

During this time the winter or south swells become common and places like '; La Aloa'; ( magic sands beach) are nothing but bare rock.

Shore snorkeling is generaly poorer..... during this time.

as others have said low 80%26#39;s for a high and around 67-68 for a low ( cold..... local wisdom is that water freezes at 60)

There should be snow on Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa.....

Ocean temp hovers around 74 in Kona and 72 in Waikoloa

Beaches in the North such as Hapuna become very windy as can the entire coast north of the Four Seasons. ( thats why they picked the site)

Mahalo everyone! I will let my family know your answers, and also pass along the tip on that weather info website.

About being slightly hotter than Huntington Beach? Oh last weekend was a scorcher! It was miserably hot! Record-breaking. I hope Kona does better for my family :)

Thanks again !
