For me that was 3 months ago, our family use to go to the beach to bond and enjoy every once a year, For some time we did not have that. The beach gives a great relaxed atmosphere, like all your worries and trouble are gone with the waves and new vibes and energy enters you thought the sun and salty water that touches your being. So, when was the last time you were there, was it a good experience? Thanks for sharing.

I actually use to live on an Island in the Pacific called Samoa. Was there for six years and often went to the beach at least once or twice a month. We would pack up our car with our neighbor/s and go for swims and or just relax and talk and even cook the odd bbq as well. Those were fun days. Now that we are in the USA, I haven't seen any beaches where we live. I do miss the beach from time to time but will be heading back to the Pacific to the Cook Islands next year for my sister in laws wedding. Now that should be a lot of fun!

The last time I went to the beach was this May 2007 together with my family. We had a three-day vacation at a hotel just near my hubby's hometown in San Isidro, Legazpi. My hubby is from Bgy.Bagong Abre Legazpi, Albay. It was the first time that my kids enjoyed the splashing waves. My kids are 6yr girl, 4yr boy and 1yr girl. My hubby played with my kids shaping a volcano out of sand. It was a worhthwhile experience with the family!

That would be great too. I live in the mountains, thats why perhaps I like the beach, where I can see a far horizon.

If I am not mistaken six weeks back my husband, my son and I went to the beach in an island that my son stayed. We spent about an hour there, throwing stones to the sea, racing with the restless waves, watching the whitish surfs from the waves heating against the huge rocks. Sitting on the rock, chatting happily while enjoyed the beautiful seascapes.

The last time I went to the beach was 2 years ago. It was just a day trip.If I am remembering correctly, it was a bittersweet trip. My favorite parking lot was gone. They were building condos on the spot.so we had to find parking. It was a little cloudy and it rained so we couldn't sit on the beach but it was good to be at the beach.

The last time I went to the beach was last June. My friends, my boyfriend, and I went to the Pearl Farm Beach Resort in Davao, Philippines. We were just there for a day but the experience was great. It was raining early that morning but thankfully the skies cleared up later on so we were still able to enjoy the beach.

I went over the summer a few times with my daughter and grandkids. I had not been to the beach in forever before that. We all had a ball, and I was glad that I went. Afterward we came home and BBQed in the yard. And the best part was we found a small beach to go to, not tons of people. So that made me happy, as I hate crowds.

For me the last time I've been to the beach was a while ago too long for that matter! I guess it was because of the rainy, wet weather we have been having & work places that we all have to commute to everyday plus weekends. The funny thing is that I am surrounded by ocean and yet I still don't make time to go there.

When I was a kid my family would always go to the beach once a year and it was the best . When I first met my finace we went to ocean city and had a nice time , but the weather was too cold to swim most days. I guess that is what you get for going in the fall , it is a risk . I went my senior year to the beach for a week and that was the best trip of my life . An all paid for trip with condo and money for a gift . I went to the lake about 4 years ago and go to a nice mademade one in deep creek each year . I gotta get to the beach . i love it my little oasis of peace.

Well the weather has already changed here in our country, so it's been a long time since I've visited one. But I can always do it if I want to, as we are near beach resorts. I mostly come there to have ome fun, relax and enjoy time with my friends and relatives. It's a great experience, as we treat it as a special gathering and an adventure as well.
