Avocado in Hawaii 2025-2026

Even though avocado is not native to Hawaii, it's widely used in modern Hawaiian cuisine

Best time: September–April

Avocado arrived to Hawaii only in the 19th century. However, since then local farmers have successfully cultivated this fruit and it has been widely used in modern cuisine. Try a delicious Avocado Poke Salad with raw fish, tuna, and avocado sauce or even avocado ice-cream while in Hawaii.
