Best Time to Hike the Manoa Falls Trail
The median temperature on the windward side of Oahu, where Manoa Falls is located, is fairly stable in 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit during the day.
You can expect typical tropical weather throughout the year: hot, humid and likely to rain!
In winter, expect more frequent rains, but that should not daunt you from hiking. We find light rain refreshing!
Also, Manoa Falls is mostly rainfed, and you’re likely to see the falls at its most impressive after a few days of rains.
The downside? Trail is a lot more muddy!
Avoid heavy rain storms as flash floods may occur.
