Hawaii is not considered a megalopolis but Hawaii has become an exotic tropical resort with a great importance in relation to its tourism.
Hawaii has a large number of visitors from a variety of countries each year. Back in the 1950’s, half of the visitors took a ship to arrive in Hawaii rather than a plane due to the developing accessibility at that time. With the growing availability of larger airplanes at a lower fare, the number of visitors has remarkably increased in every decade since the 1950s. Now, Hawaii has over 7.4 million visitors every year, and all tourists enjoy the beauty of nature and a landscape.
Hawaii’s tourism goal is to increase the number of visitors and their length of stay and improve the quality of the visitor’s stay.
More inexpensive air flights, a great number of resort hotels,and a variety of entertainments have spurred Hawaii’s tremendous urban growth over the years. It is estimated that over 50,000 hotel rooms are available. Although visitors declined during 2000 due to fewer domestic and international arrivals, a length of stay increased by 1.1%.
