Question

What are some things that I can do that don't involve swimming?

Community Answer

You can go beachcombing (looking for seashells), play volleyball, lay in the sun, read, look at your phone or tablet, take a walk, draw in the sand, etc. There are plenty of things to do that don't involve swimming but still involve enjoying the beach. After all, many people enjoy walking on the beach when it is too cold to go swimming.

Question

How can I have fun at the beach when I hate going?

Community Answer

Just lay down on the sand and let the water reach you. Make the best of the time you have. Instead of dwelling on being somewhere you don't like, try to find positive aspects of it.

Question

What if I don't feel comfortable with the way I look in a bathing suit?

Community Answer

Many people feel uncomfortable in a bathing suit. Chances are, you have no reason to worry about what you look like. Try on bathing suits until you find one that you like best. If you don't find one, you can always wear a cover up, like a shirt or dress.

How can I swim with waves without drowning?

Question

What should I do if there is a storm and I can't go to the beach?

Community Answer

You can still have fun at your house or in the hotel. Play with your siblings if you have them along, read a book, or watch TV. You can also go somewhere indoors, like a mall or a movie. As for the beach, you can still go there another day.

Question

What if I'm forced to go to the beach with someone I don't want to be with? I can't do anything about it, and it will just be three of us. How can I still have fun?

Community Answer

Change your attitude about this person before you go to the beach. Perhaps you have misjudged them in some way. If you truly can't stand them, just tell yourself something like, "I will not let this person ruin my day at the beach." Try to be civil and polite to them. If you need a break from them at any point, say you're going to lay out and tan, put on your sunglasses and earbuds if you have any, and ignore everything around you.

Question

Is there plastic on the beach?

Community Answer

It really depends on the location of the beach. If you do see plastic, pick it up and put it in the trash.
