Summertime does not officially start until you are able to take out your best swimwear, show off that hard-earned beach body, and get a laser hair removal treatment so you’ll feel more comfortable lounging under the sun. But aside from getting a tan, there are other fun things to do at the beach come summertime. And the best thing is they come free!
1. Play games
Have fun with your friends throwing the Frisbee or playing board games. You can also have a spirited beach volleyball game with or without a net installed. Kicking the ball around for a soccer match is also a fun way to enjoy the beach. You do not have to be professionals, but healthy competition could make it more enjoyable.
2. Relax
A not so crowded beach is a perfect place to unwind and relax. Lay down a blanket, prop up a beach umbrella, and start reading a magazine or finish your favorite book. You could also create a relaxing playlist beforehand and let it lull you to a peaceful and rejuvenating nap.
3. Enjoy the water
Cool off from the sweltering heat of the sun and go for a swim. Surfing is also a good option, that is if you have your board with you. Or you can start a beach water polo game with your friends.
4. Have a bonfire party
Pick up some dry wood and twigs and start a bonfire. Sitting comfortably around a fire with friends or family is a great way to enjoy the beach at night. Swap funny stories, play the guitar and sing songs, or just relax and enjoy the warmth of the fire.
5. Meet people
The relaxing ambiance and loose atmosphere of the beach make it a good place to meet new people and make new friends. Being around water has an inherently calming effect on people, a perfect mood to open up to strangers. For a confidence boost while wearing a swimsuit, make sure you have no hair on the wrong places with a laser hair removal treatment.
6. Take photos
Capture the beauty of a tranquil beach, or the smiles of your family and friends, by taking lots of photographs. Post them online and share with others, or simply put away to have something to remind you of fond memories made.
7. Watch the sunset
Sunset, or sunrise for that matter, has a way of inspiring people or at least putting them in a better mood. It also brings out the romantic in everyone and has been voted as the most romantic way to spend time with a partner.
8. Build a sandcastle
Building a sandcastle is one beach activity that has stood the test of time. You enjoyed doing it as a kid, and growing up has not changed that. It is a fun activity for all ages and any skill level.
9. Have a picnic
Food is best enjoyed with good company, even better if consumed with a picturesque view. Having a picnic with friends and family is a good way to spend time at the beach, and at the same time, avoid costly food from nearby restaurants or stores.
10. Exercise
Keep working on that beach body and exercise while enjoying the view. Walk, jog, or run to work up a good sweat. Or do yoga and meditate amid the peaceful sound of the waves to clear your mind.
Having no money would not stop you from having a great day at the beach, but having unwanted hair could. That’s why for most women, getting a laser hair removal treatment tops the checklist of things to do before summer so that they can get into their swimwear with absolute confidence.
