Averaged from the last five years of March readings — a guide to what to expect, not a forecast for a particular sailing.
Honolulu is Hawaii's capital and the starting point for most Hawaii cruises, including NCL's Pride of America, the only ship that sails the islands year-round without leaving United States waters. Waikiki's beaches and surf breaks are minutes from the pier. Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial, along with the Diamond Head crater, are an easy trip from downtown.
Honolulu in March offers pleasant temperatures, with highs around 81°F and comfortable lows near 66°F. Expect around 9 rainy days, typically brief afternoon showers rather than all-day rain. Morning excursions are usually the safest bet. Warming slightly, still comfortable
Crowds are moderate in March, making it a good balance between availability and weather. Lightweight layers work well: a light cardigan for evenings on deck and breathable tops for port days cover most conditions.
