Popular Tropical Vacation Spots in the World by Tong Lin

There's nothing like lying on a sandy beach under a bright blue sky when you look for an exotic location for a vacation. This is why most people choose to visit the Tropics, where they can experience the sun, warmth and culture for two or three weeks a year. The Caribbean is not the only place in the world where you can find tropical islands, as there are tropical vacation spots all over the world.

Bali Island is one of the most popular vacation destinations in Indonesia. It is also one of the top ten destinations in Asia. Here you will find some of the best resorts in the world with great value for the money that you spend. You can choose to stay in an oceanfront villa where you are only steps away from the beach. If you want to spend time alone, you also have the option of staying in a secluded resort.

Hainan Island, in China, has often been called Asia's Hawaii. Here you have white sandy beaches and year round tropical weather, which ranges from 16º to 30º. The tourist season runs from October to March. The international airport on this island has daily flight to all the major airports in the country, so there is no problem with being able to book a holiday in one of the resorts here.

Hawaii is another preferred destination for vacationers. The surf, sand and sun all add up to a holiday that you will remember for a lifetime. The scenery is awesome and the sunsets just take your breath away. The islands were the birthplace of surfing and when you visit you can engage in the sport or be a spectator from the beach. Explore hidden coves, swim with the dolphins or climb to the summit of a volcano.

Some of the best island vacation locations are in the Caribbean. All of the islands are geared up for tourists with accommodations to suit all budgets. Each island is different and offers a unique experience for visitors. These islands were once colonies of European countries and therefore you get the feeling that you are touring Europe when you visit because of the flavors that remain from these earlier times.

Whichever of the tropical islands in the world you wish to visit, you can easily make all your reservations online. The all-inclusive packages provide you with everything you need in comfort because you have your accommodations, meals and drinks included in the price you pay. You do have it all paid in advance, as well, which means you only have to bring your spending money with you.

The resorts in the tropical islands are almost like self-contained communities where there are facilities for all kinds of activities - swimming, tennis, golf - and of course there is a spa and fitness facilities. You can also arrange to take in some sightseeing of the area you visit and it is possible that the resort may even be able to arrange this for you.
