Line Graph - Sample 1

The line graph shows the total number of tourists visiting a Caribbean island from 2010 to 2017, broken down by those staying on the island and those staying on cruise ships. Overall, total tourist numbers rose considerably, with an especially large increase in cruise ship passengers who surpassed those staying on the island by 2015. Visitors staying on the island initially peaked at 0.75 million in 2010 but grew steadily to 1.5 million by 2013, while cruise ship passengers increased more gradually, surpassing island visitors in 2015 and reaching 2 million by 2017. Total tourist numbers reflected these trends, growing from 1 million in 2010 to a peak of 2.7 million in 2015 before leveling off and then sharply increasing to 3.5 million by the

Analysis

1. Paraphrase what the line chart shows.


2. Write a general overview that describes the trend for all areas..

1. The line graph details the total number of tourists, as well as where they stayed, while visiting
a given Caribbean island from 2010 to 2017. 

2. Overall, total tourists rose considerably, and those staying on cruise ships increased in
particular, overtaking staying on the island itself, which underwent a more moderate increase.

1. Begin to describe the data. Always compare.


2. You don’t need all the data but focus on important changes/growth/falls & group
details. In this sample since we have only 2 keys to group, so we shall write about the changes
in the 1st Body and write the Total in the 2nd Body.
3. Follow both to the end of the period, comparing them throughout.

Body 1

1. Visitors residing on the island during their travels began the period at about .75 million,
about 500,000 above those on cruise ships. 2. From there, the numbers for the former climbed
quickly to 1.5 million by 2013, a full million higher than the latter at the same time. 3. Then
those on the island were relatively steady until the end of the time surveyed, while cruise ship
passengers rose steadily, surpassing the former figure midway through 2015 and reaching a
peak in 2017 of 2 million.

1. Don’t forget to write about the overall numbers as well!

1. The progressive patterns for visitors on cruise ships and the island were reflected in
substantial gains for overall visitors, which started at 1 million in 2010, grew consistently to 2.7
million in 2015 before plateauing through 2016 and then increasing sharply to 3.5 million by the
end of the period.
