The climate of Molokai (Hawaii
- United States of America)
Molokai is one of the most peaceful islands. Because of its
capricious form and high cliffs along the coast the island is not very
suitable as a luxurious beach destination. However, the island is one
of the most authentic and untouched islands of this archipelago. If
you are looking for peace and quiet and want to experience the
authentic Hawaiian life Molokai is very suitable. Molokai has a
tropical climate. As the wind always comes from the same direction the
mountains have no leeward or windward side here, hence the absence of
orographic rainfall. Precipitation is more evenly spread out over the
island. Most rain falls during the winter. Summers may even be
extremely dry.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
