Why Not to Go to Hawaii In Summer

Hawaii is an ideal summer vacation destination, isn’t it? It’s a place where you can go to enjoy wonderful beaches and activities on the water. That’s what everyone wants to indulge in during the summer months. However, that’s the problem. Everyone wants to take their Hawaiian vacation during the summer. The crowds and popularity mean that it’s expensive to travel to Hawaii in the summer. Smart frugal travelers will skip Hawaii summer travel and choose a cheaper alternative instead.
What are some good alternatives to a Hawaii vacation? Here’s a few:

• Galveston Island, Texas. The beach here is wonderfully warm since it’s on the Gulf of Mexico. Getting here is much more affordable than getting to Hawaii, especially if you live close enough to drive. Plus you can get terrific Houston hotel deals and Houston is only a short drive away from this beach.
• The Outer Banks of North Carolina. The beaches of North Carolina often get overlooked by travelers. People who head to the warm Atlantic waters of this region often choose to go to Myrtle Beach in South Carolina instead. However, North Carolina has amazing beaches. Compared to other beach destinations, this is a really affordable place for a terrific summer vacation.
• San Luis Obispo, California. The water here isn’t quite as nice as some of the other places you can visit but you can enjoy affordable activities on the water (such as boating). You can get great ocean views from cheap hotels here, too.
• Local lakes throughout the United States. Lakes are warm enough to swim in. They often have boat rentals or jet ski rentals. You can enjoy some fishing. Larger lakes even have some waves to enjoy. And since these lakes are often not in high-tourist-traffic areas, they are very affordable to visit.

I definitely think Hawaii is a place you should visit. However, go in spring, fall or even winter. The weather is still nice there, the beaches are still wonderful and the cost is a lot lower!
