What do you like to do on vacation?

I feel like there is impression that a “beach vacation” means sitting on the beach on a lounge chair, with a sun hat, bathing suit and book for hours upon hours a day. I mean it could be, but I think for many that is not the case at all.

Walk the beach first thing in the morning.
Go to the beach to view the sunrise or sunset.
Take the dog for a walk on the beach.
Go swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, tubing, waterskiing, etc.
Collect beach treasures (shells, sea glass, rocks)
Bring a picnic down to the beach.
Run on the beach.
Play an active game like hit a volleyball, play badminton.
Talk, read, do a crossword puzzle. Listen to a podcast. Paint a watercolor of the sunset (we have done this!)

I mean, so many options! Bring the sunscreen for all of them! And also a beach vacation means getting away from the beach for a break or a forced break due to weather. I suppose if you’re at a resort you many be more limited to places to go but your average midwest lake or east coast beach vacation allows for other things to do too!
