We don’t belong there, sand gets everywhere, there’s jagged edges on the rocks for a reason, to keep us away and the things that live in the sea don’t want us in the sea, it’s got no Natural shade and the water is still freezing even at the height of Summer, but yah sand castles ?! |

Yep. Surrounded by people who seem to be enjoying themselves and I just sit there thinking 'What the fuck am I doing here?'
I always think it's one of those things where most don't really like it but feel they should. |

Yep not a great lover of the beach because as a builder I used to just dig the kids holes or get that overwhelming feeling that I want to knock loads of muck up.

"Don't like it in the summer, too many people and no shade for a ginger. But in the winter watching the waves crash during a bit of a storm can't beat it "
That's more my time for a beach holiday  |

Love it when you can't hear anything above the noise of the wind and waves. And seeing the waves crash against the rocks. Makes you feel in awe of nature's strength |

There's a sort of quiet with nature's noise. Like the first rumble of thunder and everything else is still - just waiting for the flash of lightning. |

There really is, think it's because we have a deep rooted knowledge that it's more powerful than us |

One of my happiest running moments on the beach, my wife (at the time) father in law and myself. We were on holiday, first thing in the morning out to the beach which was deserted, ran in the surf up to some boards when we turned around we couldn’t remember what point we had come on to the beach. So we just ran until we found a path.
After speaking to a local we were 5 or 6km away from the camp, so an easy 10k run was closer to 10 miles (not too bad as training for a marathon at the time) |

Ha ha - I was just thinking the same - beach is fine, if all the other c*nts would just go home - "of course I want to listen to your music...you have such good taste"..."of course I want all my clothes to smell of your portable barbecue which appears to run on old bits of tyre"..."and I love your complete disregard for anyone else's personal space"  |

Sublimity.
Just you alone with the elements knowing that at any moment it could just snuff you out. |

Yep, Nice to go to secluded ones for a bit of shell hunting & rock pooling (Went to Borth earlier in the week) but we are more hills & walking boots but even then we stay away from the obvious busy places. Plenty of desolate walks to be had in the Cambrians & it’s one of the reasons we moved to live on them.
Our worst nightmare is a beach holiday, went to Greece for our honeymoon & spent the days on a hire XT660 visiting the historical sites. I think we spent one afternoon sunbathing in two weeks.

"I love the beach...it's my happy place However where we live our beaches are beautiful and fairly quiet compared to other parts of the country x"
Beaches in Northumberland are amongst the most beautiful worldwide. I've holidayed there a few times... It's not the sunniest coast tho ..... but so beautiful.
