Hawaii, “the Aloha State”, is known for being a perfect vacation spot.

Because of its unique geography, Hawaii has something for everyone. Most of its main lands are arid, semi-arid, or tropical, while its mountainous areas have an Alpine climate.

As of October 15, Hawaii will allow travelers into the state to skip quarantine if they have proof of a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of arrival. A COVID-19 test is available at many Passport Health locations and an at-home test is offered through our online store.

Unlike many other regions, Hawaii will still allow visitors to enter the state if their test is still pending, but they must remain quarantined until their test results have returned. With results in hand or pending, however, all Hawaii-bound travelers must fill out a Hawaii Travel Health form.

See the image below for more information on how Hawaii is handling various testing situations.

Hawaii has a stable tropical climate all year round.

The state has two main seasons, kau, which is the warm season, and ho’olio, which is the cooler season. The warm season is from May to October while the cooler season is from November to April. The cooler season is not usually actually cold. When the sun is lower in the South, there are more winds, and it is more likely to have rain and clouds.

June, July, and August are the driest months for the islands. Winter does get more rain and cloud cover. But, they are still quite intermittent and sunshine is frequent.

Average highs for Hawaii are in the high-80’s during summer low-80’s in winter. Temperatures rarely enter the 90’s or drop below the 70’s.

Hawaii is a safe travel destination. The main thing to be careful about while there is nature.

Protect yourself from the hot and harmful run rays. Use sunblock, sunglasses, a hat and well-chosen clothing. Always check with park rangers and wear appropriate footwear when hiking in the wilderness.

Follow the advice of signs at beaches in particular – if you are advised not to swim, listen. Don’t leave valuables unattended and watch yourself against petty street crime. Be careful not to swim or wade in freshwater or touch plants or animals. Some creatures carry bacterial diseases the could lead to harm.

Avoid an Embarrassing Stop

Diarrhea can easily ruin a trip.Over 70% of travelers
will have diarrhea.

If you’re a fan of nature and of dinosaur movies, touring and exploring Hawaii’s beautiful island of Kauai may be a memorable experience.

The island served as “Isla Nublar” and many other locations in scenes for several of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic series. With a little research, fans can enjoy visiting some of the many unique spots used. Some highlights include the Na Pali Coast and the Limahuli Garden. Certain spots can be seen by tour, while others can be experienced through a variety of ways such as hiking or a helicopter ride.

Even if you’re not a fan of the movie series, Kauai is absolutely still worth a visit. Visitors can experience helicopter tours, sailing, snorkeling, Zodiac tours, hiking, and more.

Think ahead on what to pack by perusing these suggestions:

  • Swim Gear – Be sure to bring a swimsuit, snorkel or other swimming equipment with you on your trip.
  • Comfortable Shoes – With so many hiking, walking and tour options, having good footwear is a must.
  • Insect Repellent – Mosquitoes are present on Hawaii. Make sure you have some repellent with you for protection during your trip.
