Rain days are the days with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts them.

Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in US as well as at Maui, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.

How busy it gets

Busiest from June to August; quietest in October and November.

The year in Maui

Maui's weather is generally pleasant year-round, but visitors should be cautious of hurricane season from June through November. Rain is rare during peak months, typically falling in winter.

Busiest
mid Dec to early Jan — High holiday travel and pleasant weather.
mid Jun to late Aug — Summer vacation season with families traveling.
Quieter, still good
early Apr to mid Jun — Transitioning weather and fewer tourists than summer.
early Sep to late Nov — Post-summer lull, good weather, and fewer crowds.
Watch out for hurricane season

Written by a language model from the climate figures above. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe.
