I will be working in Boston this summer and would like to
travel afterwards (on a low budget).
I am interested in travelling to The Bahamas, Barbados or
Hawaii.
I have been trying to check out the costs of accommodation
and flights etc. but , if you have any information which can
help, please contact me.
Thanks

I have not been to Hawaii, but have been visited both
Barbados and the Bahamas several times. I understand
Hawaii is expensive, but Barbados in particular is very
costly and not geared toward budget travelers.

The Bahamas is also not cheap, though the outer islands
(outside of Nassau, paradise Island,Freeport) are less
costly and offer great outdoor and underwater activities.

Flights from Miami are pretty cheap, about $125 RT and
American Airlines has service from Boston. Barbados is
always an expensive ticket and Hawaii is as well. I have
never stayed at enything but a nice hotel so I can't
comment on accomodation rates, though it is fair to say
that you could find a place for $50/night. Have fun and
eat lots of conch fritters.
If you want to go to a family island in the Bahamas, try
Andros Island. You can fly in from W. Palm Beach or Fort
Lauderdale, Florida on Bahamasair. More information at
