HI


You should make your intro clear,most importantly understand what a chart present,there are many variations of charts but each has similar purposes
If there is any differences in time so you can use "illustrate changes" like: "the chart illustrates change in"
Otherwise it can use "compare" like: "chart compares countries in"
I do not recommend to use any weird vocabulary in task 1 such as "depict"

Next point is you should find main verbs for this chart.
For instance in this chart it is "prefer to travel by" or "choose a hotel",


In addition,what does this sentence mean? It is not the percentage of accommodation increases, it is a figure increases.


The number of passengers increases or what?


do not use this sort of vocab as it inappropriate for this task.
There is no interesting things in this chart.

However, coastal city hotel reached a peak about 90 percent in 1985 from 20 percent in 1970, then was a low of trough about 10 percent in 2000

Moving into the Adventure tourism was a gradual rise from 20 percent in 1970 and rise to 40 percent in the 1985. This figure moved approximately50 percent between 1970 and 2000.

Moreover, traveling with train and airplane seemed favor for tourist in Harbour. Both figures have the same portion as 40 percent in 1985. This inversely proportional in other two years recorded, 20 percent tourist prior using train in 1970. Otherwise, in 2000 around 60 percent tourist esteemed plane more suitable media to reach Harbour city.
