Going to the beach!

Heading out on Friday. I swear, the coast is in my blood. Well, coasts and sleepy forest towns. But yesh. Oregon's got some of the best beaches.
 
Seconded. I could get my shoes to squeak on the sand there. It also was so fine and smooth it belonged in a hour glass.
 
The Beach is weird for me. I generally don't want to go to any Beach on the Ocean. Lakes and stuff are cool, I was even at one yesterday, even went out in a little e-boat.

But when I was 5 I almost got pulled out...so fuck the ocean.

Don't really have any sandy beaches where I live.

Though I am currently visiting B.C. which does have some lovely beaches.

I always wanted to visit British Columbia.
 
Not a fan of either sun-bathing or regular bathing. I burn waaay to easily. I am after all a blonde/strawberry blonde/red (head/beard) night-owl.. ,)
I could enjoy myself on the beach though, properly encapsulated in full-length clothing. With either metal-detectoring or rockhounding. Or just relaxing and..enjoying the view. ^^

I too burn like a Vampire in Daylight. Hissssssssss

So, question, do you not enjoy the bathing (in water) because of the burning up or are those seperate issues?

Both!
The water amplify the effects of the sun, and I don't like the feeling of not knowing what's underneath my feet.
If I've got a cyclops (have to cover my nose and eyes) and light, I actually enjoy water. I am a Pisces after all. ^^

It's a similar feeling for me. Apart from the whole almost drowning thing, I just don't really trust beaches on the open ocean. Too many dangerous creatures that like hiding in the sand of a beach.

With a lake around here, the worst that can happen is that a particularly big fish touches me...or you drown because of the plants growing underwater...but I don't go to places where that's an issue, especially since swimming there tends to be illegal anyway.

Not sure what I would do on a beach if I were to ever go there... Sitting around on the beach all day doesn't sound that fun and swimming in murky seawater doesn't sound like much fun either, I prefer swimming in pools.


Maybe a hike along the coast could be fun though...

The last time I went to the beach I was Kayaking so much that when I got home my whole body sored. And not only that I caught a common cold.

I just basically got home feeling like utter shit. Never going to that beach again.

Kayaking as a beach activity? Sounds like that could be fun, minus the aching muscles and catching a cold.

Went kayaking back in high school once, but we kayaked down a river rather than in the ocean / a lake.
