Kaneohe

The town of Kaneohe is located on the eastern (“windward”) side of Oahu near Kaneohe Bay and Mokuoloe Island. Kaneohe Bay is nestled against the beautiful Koolau Mountains, which provides an impressive backdrop for the sparkling water and lush, tropical foliage and coconut palms surrounding Kaneohe. All of this serenity, yet Kaneohe is just twenty minutes from the beaches of Waikiki. Ten minutes away is Kailua Beach, which has been ranked as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world! Activities in the area include swimming, snorkeling and diving, windsurfing, sailing, hiking, biking and golf. Nearby points of interest include Kaneohe Beach Park, Haiku Gardens, Kualoa Regional Park, The Valley of the Temples, Sea Life Park and the Polynesian Cultural Center is just a 25-minute drive away.

Kaneohe Weather & Climate

|
The tropical climate of the southeastern %u201Cwindward%u201D side of Oahu sees variations in rainfall and elevation within short distances on the island. The southern side of the island, near Honolulu and Waikiki Beach receives less rainfall than the north/northeastern sides. There are two mountain ranges that influence the climate of Oahu %u2013 both serve to block trade wind moisture from reaching the south and southwestern sides of the island, thus resulting in the drier climate. In the Waikiki area, yearly rainfall is 25 inches (with most of that occurring in November through March, except for the occasional thunderstorm on summer afternoons.) Compare this to Manoa Valley, which is just a few miles away in the mountains, and receives 158 inches. Overall, Oahu enjoys warm, balmy weather year round, with moderate humidity and no extremes. Even winter storms tend to be quick and occur mostly in the evenings.
