Hilo experiences high rainfall all through the year and temperatures remain high from January to December. If you want to visit Hilo during the Merrie Monarch Festival then stay here between March and April.
Between December and April accommodations prices tend to be expensive due to the large number of tourists. A better option is to visit in low season from May to November when prices are cheaper.
There is very limited public transport on the island, so if you want to get around, you’ll need to rent a car or take a guided tour. Buses and bikes can be used to get around small areas. You can find some of the tour companies located in the city.
