Hawaii Ranks as the World´s Premiere Dream Travel Destination

Black sandy beaches, warm Pacific breezes, bubbling lava and the waves of Waikiki top the list of world travelers´ vacation fantasies, that according to a recent poll conducted by Ipsos, a U.S consulting company.

When people were asked to name any place they would want to go on vacation if they had the time and the money, Hawaii was the choice of 14 percent, more than any other specific place.

One-fourth of those questioned named balmy, sunny locations from Hawaii to Florida to the Caribbean, while slightly more mentioned some place in Europe, according to the poll.

People with at least some college education were more likely to see Europe as the perfect vacation; those with a high school education were more likely to say Hawaii.
