Our services at Hawaii
SIXT services in Hawaii
We make it smooth and simple for you to get around the islands. Cruise the tropical coastline in a convertible, or head for the jungle-covered hills in a rugged 4x4. If leisurely comfort is your priority, our luxury saloons will be perfect. You can also book a range of extras to make your trip easier. Child seats are no problem to organise, and you can add a second driver to your car hire contract so that one person doesn't drive all the time. Stay if you like - we offer many rental options, including weekly hire and weekend hire.

Summer in Hawaii
Hawaii is a summer holiday destination par excellence. It has sun all year round, with a temperate climate. It's the best season to head off to the Kanaha Pond Wildlife Sanctuary in Kahalui, on Maui island. If you like your golfing, Kaneohe has plenty of courses, as well as offering a lush botanical garden and all the beach resorts you could want.
Winter in Hawaii
You might not think that there are many wintery activities in Hawaii, but all you must do is hire a 4x4 from SIXT and take a drive into the mountains, where it even snows in winter. You can go snowboarding on Mauna Kea – who would have thought? Winter is also the best time for whale watching off the coast as migrating humpback whales swim past. The best spot for this is next to Makapuu Lighthouse on Oahu.
