Travel Motivators and Barriers

            The biggest travel motivator is obviously the weather. The average weather in Hawaii is about 26 degrees Celsius! This is perfect for people looking to soak up some rays! There are also tons of exciting activities for tourists, beautiful beaches and cheap accommodations for budget travelers. I hate winter, and as a Canadian, that’s kind of a problem. Hawaii is the perfect getaway opportunity for people who like summer, however, for the people who cannot deal with hot weather (like my mom) this may be a barrier, and those people may chose to go somewhere cooler. As for activities, well, your options never end! You can participate in tons of recreational water activities such as scuba lessons, swimming with the sharks/dolphins and even reef diving! For the less adventurous people, this may not be something they are interested in and they may choose to go somewhere with activities that are less exciting (maybe go to a museum…). Another travel motivator is that it is cheap to stay in Hawaii. If you are a budget traveler, there are many options for you as far as cheap accommodation and activities. If you are going to Hawaii just for a relaxing getaway, you don’t need to participate in extra tours and things like that; you can just lie on the beach and go swimming! If you are looking for a high class vacation and something very high end as far as accommodations and activities, not to worry! There are tons of options for you too!
