South Maui Overview
2002 Population: 22,953
| Because it rests in Haleakala's rain shadow, Maui's southeastern shore gets maybe ten inches of rainfall each year. It is the driest, sunniest spot on the island. Couple that with a long, almost continuous line of beautiful beaches with exceptional views of the neighboring islands and Molokini as well as predictably gorgeous sunsets and it is easy to understand why the area is one of Maui's most popular resort destinations.
Weather Overview - South Maui, like West Maui is also a frequent visiting place for tourists and kama'aina alike who enjoy the sunny hot weather. Kihei, the center of South Maui, only received 19.96 inches of rainfall which makes the likeliness of a sunny beach day great. The trade winds which bring rain and cooler temperatures to the islands do not directly hit South Maui, creating warmer weather than other parts of the island.
