HOLIDAY AT THE BEACH

1.-Before you start organizing a beach day , you should

consult the weather forecast for the weather. Be sure to

be a sunny day, without the presence of clouds or rain,

as this could damage your full trip to the beach .

2.-The next step is to choose the best beach according

to your needs and interests . There are beaches for all

tastes, so it is interesting to find one that allows us to

spend a perfect beach day . For example , the little surf

beaches are shallow and ideal for families with children

, however , a group of friends who have planned a day

of surf beaches enjoy in big waves and strong wind.

Also research the services and facilities available to the

beach to see if it fits what you were looking for.

3.-In the summer season , all the beaches begin to be

crowded and full of tourists. Therefore, it is advisable to

arrive early to the beach if you want to find a good site

that is close to the seashore

4.-When planning a beach day , the most important

is to prepare carefully luggage to have everything

you need . Try not missing swimsuits , the right

shoes , towels, umbrellas , sunscreen , sunglasses

and hats or hats for sun protection . Moreover, you

can also include things for your entertainment and

inflatable balls , mats, boogie boards, beach paddle

, floats , letters ... and everything you can think of .

5.-A beach day can be exhausting , so it is

essential to go well prepared with enough food and

drink. The beach is an ideal place for a picnic and

enjoy homemade food in a spectacular setting. We

recommend bringing cold dishes like salads , pasta

, sandwiches, fruit and other foods to snack

between meals and snacks.

6.-Carry plenty of drinking is essential to be well

hydrated at all times. Besides fresh water , you can

take fruit juices and soft drinks. To that stay cool ,

take them in a cooler with ice sheets.

become a fun time do not hesitate to

plan different activities to be

entertained and have a good time ,

and even rent a boat group . And if
