The waves are crashing. The sun is setting. People are laughing and
embracing under the sunset. I feel the sand squish slowly through my toes
as I gaily walk down the shoreline of the Outer Banks. My all time favorite
place to be is the beach. The weather at the beach is the most quarreling
of all places in the world. One minute you are relaxing lazily on the sandy
seashore reading a most invigorating book. I sit engrossed and allow the
foamy mist from the rampant ocean spray your face lightly as though it was
the touch of a feather. Off in the distance the sun begins to set in a
sleepy unhurried fashion. It is the most beautiful sight I have ever seen.
The colors swirl together in a muddled mass across the sky. Crash! Flash!
The sky turns wild. Lightning hurls itself across what was once the tame
uncaring heaven.
Thunder booms while the atmosphere relieves itself of unwanted moisture. A
violent explosion of heavenly emotion has replaced my peaceful evening. What
could be more exciting than living in a place where your plans could be
intruded upon so abrasively by a cause you cannot control?
Sand castle building is the most enjoyable and childish activity available
to people over the age of ten. Building sand castles is a very creative
process. First, I have to decide what type of architecture I am going to
construct my castle around. The architecture can be old-fashioned,
contemporary, or even imaginary. Next, I mus...
There are many different types of coasts that exist throughout the United States. The south shore of Long Island has a unique types of coast known as a barrier beach. Barrier beaches are long narrow land forms that are composed of sand and other lose sediments. These sediments are brought together by the actions of waves, currents and storm surges. Barrier beaches are subject to constant changes by the same forces. Sand is constantly eroded in one area an deposited in another. Barrier coasts are important for a number of reasons; they protect the mainland of Long Island from the open ocean and flooding during storms, for recreational use and the unique ecosystems which exist on barrier beaches.
California’s most ravishing views must be its coastline. There are amazing, refined, long stretches of beaches that offer a wide variety of sceneries. Beautiful white sand coming from Santa Monica, Long Beach and Big Sur. All types of people from the state of California to people from Florida enjoy California beaches. Some even like to hang loose and surf on the waves coming off the coast. Incredible evenings make families in California come together to watch the sun set.

Clearwater beach, years ago, was ranked as the number one beach on the planet, with its white powdery sand and super clear water. Sarasota beach is quiet, and one can hear the natural crashing of the waves hitting the shore that sooths anybody trying to relax and enjoy their
Soft white sand, crashing waves and the hot sun are on the list for those who want to be in paradi...
Eastern Point Beach divides into four different parts: the beach, the park, the snack bar (concession stand), and the athletic areas. I began my observation at Eastern Point Beach by walking along the beach. As the sand seeped through my toes I reminisced on the fun times me and my family had here. My family and I would go to the beach almost every Wednesday because my parents did not have to work, and I always returned home as red as a lobster. I then turned my attention towards the many families laying on their beach towels; everyone appeared to be in peace and serenity. A couple of individuals had beach chairs, but the majority of individuals laid on beach towels. I stopped for a moment to take in the sun and to look at the unique sea shells
In all my travels, Southern Maryland is the best place to live. There are so many adventures to be had. From places to eat, to water activities and the fine art of our local artisans. We have every kind of cuisine you can think of. With the Chesapeake Bay in our back yards we are able to do so many water activities from swimming, boating to fishing. The sky is the limit when it comes to our bay. Lastly, we have a good amount of art museums and local artisan shops to explore and discover something new.
These beaches provide a place of rest and relaxation from the minute person steps on to one. One in particular that is the most famous of all of Puerto Rico would the Flamenco beach. This is the most attractive. The sand is warm as the summer sun and so soft your feet just sink. The water is crystal blue and shimmers as the sun sets on it. Even as the sun sets you can still see the coral reef with a spectrum of colors throughout these reefs house exotic fish and birds.

Its residents like to swim or soak up the sun at the beach, go fishing, and go biking. Heading to the spa for mani or a facial is also a popular activity, as is shopping at the independent stores in town. There’s plenty to do in Rosemary Beach, and it’s all within walking distance!
All of this got me thinking that by this summer I may not be in the islands, but I can let my imaginations take me to my imaginary destination and when I do I will just lay on the grass and close my eyes as I face the sky and let the breeze hit my skin and just dream as I am back home. As I dream I am to rest on a beach with my family until dawn and see the beautiful colors in the sky and live a soulful life without having too think about any
The warm weather, beach waves, a warm breeze. A place with all those characteristics is Florida. Florida is a nice place to go and relax at the beach with friends and family. If i could visit one place in the world it would be Florida because of the beaches, tasty foods, and fun amusement park.
Review from Los Angeles Times Book Review, 02/02/1997: "[A]rresting though no masterpiece.. Garland's message is complex and acute. The self-indulgence of a generation of young Westerners--seeking isolated and well-funded paradises and ignoring the miseries and needs around them--can breed monsters. There is more than one kind of Vietnam.. The reader's suspense in this intelligently conceived and often effective novel, may consist more in wondering what the author will do than in what his characters will do." -- Richard Eder.
Imagine exploring sandy, white beaches and indulging in mouthwatering seafood. If I could travel anywhere, the one place I would travel to is Florida. I want to go to Florida because of the fun attractions and the exquisite food. The first thing I would do in Florida is go to Clearwater Beach. Last summer I went to Florida, and went to the attractions Clearwater Beach offered. Everytime visit Florida, I go to the beach. One of my favorite parts about vacationing in Florida is the warm, sunny weather.
We eventually make it to the beach and it was beautiful out! The first step onto the sand burns our feet and we all race to the water. The wind floats through our hair and the water splashes on our feet. Everybody sets up their chairs and plops down to just relax and look at the stunning ocean, when it starts raining cats and dogs.
“The Beach” is a recent movie that has been released on videocassette. The movie starts off with a young man traveling around the world in pursuit for a perfect society. During his journey he visits Bangkok, Thailand where he meets a rather unstable and somewhat insane man. Throughout their conversation, the insane man kept referring to an island of paradise. On this island, there are beautiful waterfalls, crystal clear water, and enormous fields of marijuana. The exact environment the young man was searching for. However, the man refused to tell the young man where it was. The next day, the young man found a map under his door leading to the enchanted island. When the young men went to the guy’s house he found him in a pool of blood, dead from suicide.
Walking outside, smelling the wet grass and hearing the wildlife coming alive. Listening to the Rio Grande flowing away and the birds chirping away. Looking at the mountains with their snow tops and watching the sun rise over them. A day in paradise.
