5 Reasons to Visit Hawaii This Summer

Hawaii is consistently considered one of the great vacation retreats, topping many people's lists of summer vacation destinations. With its gorgeous scenery, captivating activities, and friendly people, there's little wonder as to why so many people want to go. Here are some of the top reasons to make Hawaii your summer retreat.

With over 400 public beaches, there was no way they weren't going to make the top of the list. Hawaiian beaches come in great varieties from traditional yellow sand beaches to more exotic red, white, and black sands. There's even the Papakolea Green Sand Beach, which many consider a once in a lifetime sight. Just be sure to avoid driving on it.

Nothing ruins a trip to the beach like bad weather, but that's rarely a problem in Hawaii. The summer is a dry season with an average temperature of 85 degrees. April, May, September, and October are generally considered the best months to visit since June and July can sometimes get hurricanes.

And also games of golf, and many popular attractions within walking distance. Amenities include a pool and fitness center, and there's even a private recreational village.

Hawaii offers great activities including snorkeling and scuba diving. For surfing enthusiasts, Hawaii is a no-brainer and offers some of the best waves in the entire world. Those who prefer staying dry can still partake in sailing tours, rafting, or even parasailing. Of course, you can also have fun taking in the unique geography and visiting local shops.

A unique blend of cultures from all around the world and nearly one-fourth of residents claim ancestry from two or more ethnic groups. Hawaii's historical sites is a must for history buffs, and everyone can enjoy a friendly welcome. Of course, no trip is complete without trying the local food, and Hawaii boasts affordable and unique blends of ethnic cuisine.

Hawaii has no shortage of activities, and there's simply no way to see everything in one visit. You may have to make a Hawaii trip your summer tradition!
