| Park | Entry | Reservation | Best time to go | How long to stay |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Haleakalā | $30 per car | Required in season | April through October tends to be drier, but the summit can be clear or cloudy any month, so check the forecast and have a backup day. | Plan one day for the summit and a separate long day for the Road to Hāna and Kīpahulu. |
| Hawaiʻi Volcanoes | $30 per car | Not required | Any month works since the summit climate is mild all year, but drier weather often comes from April through October. | Two days lets you see the summit, drive to the coast and return at night for the glow. |
