Hawaii's tropical climate means the leeward coasts stay drier and sunnier through the year, while the wetter season generally falls between November and March. Food on the island leans on fresh seafood, poke, plate lunches and tropical fruit, and English and Hawaiian are the main languages spoken. Direct flights from the US mainland serve the island, with inter-island flights and ferries linking the main islands, so a visit to Kapaau fits easily into a wider island itinerary.
