How often do you go to the beach?

With it getting hot out there eventually, how often do you go to the beach? How long do you usually stay when you go?

The last time was a decade ago lol.

Now?

The nearest "beach" is at least a 12 hour drive away. So. Never.

When we lived on the east coast of the US, we went several times a year when it was OFF SEASON.

Otherwise you couldn't see the beach for the people.

Zero times. I don't consider the "beaches" here in Oregon to be a beach. Having grown up in Southern California, it's hard to compare the two. I'd probably go more if I still lived in Huntington Beach.

I literally live in Florida and NEVER go to the beach. That's too much sunlight for me, man.

We went last summer and we'll be going this summer to Florida in late July to visit my wife's grandparents. When we're not seeing them, we'll be on the beach.

For me, the beach is a place of relaxation and rejuvenation. I try to go as often as I can, especially during the warmer months. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of sand between your toes and the sound of waves crashing against the shore.

I usually stay for a few hours, just enough time to soak up some sun (with plenty of sunscreen, of course) and maybe read a good book. It’s also a great opportunity to spend quality time with friends and family, or just to enjoy some peaceful solitude.
