I guess it would have to be Myrtle Beach, since thatās pretty much the only one Iāve been to that I remember. We went there every year for spring break with my church youth group. I did go to San Diego for my cousinās wedding and touched the Pacific Ocean just to say that I have, but the beach itself was unremarkable and crowded. And I went to Florida when I was three but I barely remember that.

I live near a few rivers and lakes, but have seldom been to ocean beaches. I guess my favorite is Lincoln City on the Pacific Ocean because itās the only one Iāve been to recently. I donāt even know if the beach had a name, as I stopped for 30 minutes or an hour while on my way from visiting friend A to visiting friend B. I came home with a couple shells (they sadly cracked) and some hag stones.

I donāt remember what the beach is called but Iāll always remember this tucked away beach on St. Johnās Island where literally 5 feet off the shore where the water is like 3 feet deep there was a coral reef on a rock and I didnāt have to even go snorkeling any further. I could just sit there in the water for hours and watch all the little creatures.
I donāt have a great memory but I remember this from when I was a teen. My mom had stand-by air access when I was a kid so we had super cheap trips to the Virgin Islands by camping on St. Johnās. Very interesting experience since most people stay in hotels. 
One night we were coming back from the beach and a crab was unzipping our tent.
Same trip I got second degree burns from the sun over the entirety of the front of my legs. The very first day I was there. Very painful but I didnāt let it stop me from enjoying things. When I got home the doctor gave me burn cream to put on my legs for an hour at a time that you had to put on about a centimeter thick. It was an interesting experience as well.

Iāve never been able to collect stones with the natural holes. Weāve picked the usual seashells and sand dollars. When I lived in Japan, our house was a 5 minute walk to the beach and we were able to find sea glass there.

Iāve been to Myrtle beach and that was nice too!
Ouch! That burn sounds awful! I would have been startled if a crab was unzipping my camping tent!

It was verrry painful. I didnāt know a burn could do what it did. When I was walking the pain would shoot up my legs like I was being electrocuted. Very weird.
Oh and at night the land crabs all come out and just swarm the surrounding forrest so if youāre walking back to your tent at night you have to like, shuffle your way through many large crabs walking with you. These crabs are a gross sickly yellow color so itās way creepier than if they were all red for some reason. Lol
