A beach holiday offers the perfect experience of sun, sand and sea. There are many activities you can do while at the beach, from relaxing on the natural stretch of sand, building sand castles with your loved ones, or enjoying a refreshing swim in the waters.
The sun's rays on the beach are very hot and penetrate directly into the skin, which can cause skin burns. So don't forget to wear sunscreen to protect your skin. It's like a coating against sunburn. Apply before going out and reapply every two hours.
Playing on the beach or in the water makes you hungry. Bring some light snacks like fruit, nuts, or sandwiches to avoid eating fast food. This saves time going back and forth looking for food outside the beach.
The ocean is beautiful but very powerful. Swim in designated areas and wear a life jacket if you are not good at swimming, and be aware of the waves which can be dangerous. Follow safety rules to have worry-free fun.
Bring a beach umbrella or find shade under a tree. It's nice to take a break from the sun and cool off a bit.
Try some beach activities such as snorkeling, beach volleyball, or just combing the beach for shells. It adds extra excitement to the holiday and brings new experiences.
Bring a camera or use a cell phone to capture the moment. A vacation at the beach should be remembered as a happy moment and photos are the best way to relive those moments.
