Why Everyone Loves Hawaii
There's certainly no denying that Hawaii has a special charm. Here are 10 reasons that make is a place everyone wants to visit:
1) Amazing weather year-round. The lowest average temperature is 63F and the highest average is 79F.
2) English is the main language. English is THE language of travel, used to communicate between locals and travelers. Having the locals speak English natively makes it much easier for many international travelers to visit the islands.
3) Food. Hawaii has many tropical fruits that grow on the islands, including pineapple, lychee, and guava. In addition, coffee and sugar cane plantations are plentiful, ensuring top-notch coffee. Naturally, the seafood selection is also nothing to scoff at, as well as the freshness and quality of the fish. There's also native Hawaiian foods, including kalua pig, poi, lau-lau, etc. Shave ice is practically a native Hawaiian dessert itself.
4) Natural beauty. Each of the Hawaiian islands boasts a stunning landscape, filled with waterfalls, rainforests, volcanoes, beaches, beaches, and more beaches. Hawaiian flora is also well-known for its beauty (hibiscus, gardenias, plumerias, etc).
5) Wildlife. People love Hawaii for the opportunities it offers them to come up close to animals, including, hundreds of different fish species, spinner & bottlenose dolphins, sharks, whales, dozens of tropical bird species, and sea turtles.
6) Diversity of activities. Hawaii offers a multitude of different activities which range from extreme sports to world-class massages. Some of these include: surfing, parasailing, golf, snorkeling, diving, shopping, hiking, deep sea fishing, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, and kiteboarding.
7) Accessibility. Although most of the bigger islands have their own airports, the major airport is HNL, Honolulu International Airport, located on Oahu. It is one of the busiest airports in the US, with over 21 million passengers a year. It has direct connections to the continental US, Australia, Fiji, Samoa, Tahiti, the Philippines, Japan, and South Korea, making it easy to get to.
8) Diversity of people. "Hawaii is demographically unique because it has the highest percentage of Asian Americans and Multiracial Americans, as well as the lowest percentage of White Americans" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haw...). This makes it feel like a foreign country, except it still accepts American cash.
9) Hawaiians. Their friendliness, openness, thoughtfulness, and kindness is unrivaled. Meet them, talk with them, get to know them -- you will then understand the true meaning of Aloha Spirit!
10) Clothing. Everyone loves wearing comfortable clothing, but when you visit Hawaii, it's just natural to see everyone in fun, bright floral clothing like Hawaiian shirts, and tropical dresses.
