I love the beach. Not the crowded noisy beach. I have found a beach that hardly anyone goes to. It's tucked away in Alan's Harbour. Me and the kids splash around on the shore all day as the sailboats glide by. I love the smell in the air, the smell of sunblock,and skipping rocks on the water. Do you have anything that you really love about the beach?

I love the beach too! What do I love best about the beach? I love the openness! I love the serenity, peace, and calmness that it brings into my life when I go there! The waves rolling on shore & the sunlight glistening on the water! I love to see my kids so excited and building sand castles and running in and out of the tide! I love seeing families spending time together and I love especially getting that quality time with my own family! I'd be lost without the beach! It's one of my favorite vacation destinations!

I love the sand and water. but if is should choose I would rather just on a bench with my feet in the water and relax. I can't swim anyway.

I love the shoreline too! I love to sit at the shoreline in the water with my children and skip rocks.

Fernandina beach Fl - Walk-way to the beach.
You just named the very things I love about the beach. One thing the beach does for me is make any problems I think I have, very small. When I look out over that huge expanse of water. I know that if God could do that, he can sure take care of what ever problem I may think I'm having at the time lol. We can't skip rocks over the water because the waves are too big. We love to hunt fossil sharks teeth at our favorite beach. Many times I'll be in a store and get a wiff of suntan lotion and instantly I long for the beach.

I totally agree with you. When I go to the beach, it is like I have left all my problems behind. It is a wonderful peaceful experience for me and I always want to go back as soon as I leave.

There are 2 things I love about the beach and can't decide which is more fun and interesting. I enjoy hearing the water rush up on the beach and rolling back into the ocean. It's relaxing. I also love to people watch.

The beach - A drawing I did of the beach with MS Paint.
I love the beach and one of the best things about it is that is is usually cooler there than where I live. In the summer it's a hundred degrees most days here and that is awful! But the beach now, it's usually cooler, it smells really great and I love the sound of the waves. I love walking along the beach and just relaxing. In fact, I wish I was at the beach right now! :-)

I agree, I live in the hot city. The beach always has a nice warm breeze.

The natural white sand of the beach.My most favourite.I loves to step barefooted on it and it feels the relaxation.Other than that,the far view of the sea,it feels the never ending connections in this world! =)
