NO, not crazy.... even if there is some small rain showers, they consider this a blessing in Hawaii, you can't beat a beach wedding in my opinion!! In November on the East Shore (Aliomanu Bay) you can expect small surf... now weather, that one is hard to predict! The normal days, we have the trade winds during the day hours that blow the clouds by... in the early morning and evenings, when the trade winds slow down is when you can expect the rain showers... the clouds get a chance to build up on the mountains and do what they do:o) Let us know what you decide!! How exciting... a huge congratulations to you and yours! Aloha Joan!

What is the weather and surf like at Anahole Bay and Aliomanu? We prefer the beaches on the North Shore, more secluded, etc. but worry about a rainy wedding.

Christmas is an amazing time to visit our island. The thing to keep in mind is during the winter months the north shore (Hanalei, Haena & Princeville areas) does get high surf and is known for wetter weather. The south side (Poipu) get's their high-surf during the summer months and winter months this side has very calm ocean conditions. The South Shore is also know as the 'sunny side' of the island. A few things to take into consideration, the rain does make for lush and gorgeous scenery (waterfalls, rainbows, tropical flowers and greenery)... the north shore is know for it's natural beauty and in my opinion does top that of the south. The driving distance between the two areas is approx. an hour to an hour and a half, so really not too bad, and this is not freeway driving but rather gorgeous landscapes, mountain and ocean views. Another neat thing about the north shore during the winter months, is this is when the Humpback whales migrate past the coast... so you can see them jump, splash and play from any scenic overlook, pretty amazing! I hope this information helps! Have a wonderful day and good luck with the planning! Shelah Abubo Aloha Tammy!

This will be our first trip to Hawaii and your site is helpful in planning our vacation. I am in love with the beautiful scenery of the north shore of Kauai but am worried we may not have good weather or nice beaches in the area at that time of year. Any helpful tip or advise?
