Why It’s Overrated

1. Boring and is like everywhere else in the world.
2. Way too overpriced for everything.
3. It’s talked about way too much!

It can be way too crowded during the summer months and can be challenging to find a quiet place. Hawaii can have high costs, which makes it hard for people with tight budgets. Since many people tend to visit Hawaii, there is an increase in pollution and the destruction of many ecosystems. Over-harvesting for materials can lead to harm to the wild. 

Why it isn’t Overrated

1. Unforgettable sunsets & weather
2. The water and beaches are amazing!
3. The food is delicious & the people are super friendly!

Hawaii has many things to offer, many activities, the warm climate, and of course the natural beauty! This combination of characteristics makes Hawaii a unique and very popular location. Hawaii is an unforgettable place, with its range from the cultures and adventures, to the amazing view and food. Many people go year after year, showing that Hawaii can be a very fun trip.
