We are planning a trip to Hawaii for 10 days during Christmas/New Year holidays and are trying to decide between Maui and Big Island. We are flying into HNL airport so we are planning to spend 3 days inOahu and then spend rest of our vacation either in Maui or Big Island. One of the important activities we are looking to do is snorkeling/diving. We want to hike, relax on the beach and snorkel.
I have read that Maui has great snorkeling but the winter storms may kick up sand and the waves may make it not ideal for snorkeling. Any advice on snorkeling conditions comparison between Maui and Big Island in December-January? Do you recommend one island over other from snorkeling and beach perspective?
Thanks for any help!
