Thinking of a trip for next year, one week on the big island followed by a week in Palau. Palau "best time to go" seems to be Nov-Apr, what about Kona as far as visibility underwater, manta ray numbers, and general topside weather? I don't care about water temperature and air temperature, I care much more about visibility underwater and sunny skies on land (even if a bit cool). My options are mid to late March or anytime in November to mid December. It's an expensive trip so while I know nothing is guaranteed I at least want the odds in my favour!
