Things to Do on a Rainy Day at The Beach

I'm a beach person. I live by the beach, often at the beach, and just love it. The beach has weather just like anywhere else, and whether you live there or visit, you just may hit upon rainy weather. Some people despair, which is silly, because every day is a beach day if you have the right attitude. Here are a few things to do on a rainy day at the beach.

First of all, it's wet but is it cold? You can't lie in the sun, but you can still swim and play. Frisbee, long walks, looking for shells, beachcombing etc. are still plenty of fun. Who cares if it's a little wet if it's still warm? Hope not you because you can s till spend a few hours having fun, assuming there is no thunder or lightning to drive you away.

Fishing is often better in the rain, and certainly tends to be better if overcast. Many places you can even rent fishing gear and you don't need to be an ardent fisherman to have fun for an hour or more.

Most popular beaches do have a built up tourist infrastructure, whether that's good or bad, and there are probably plenty of places to eat and drink nearby. There are often other attractions like aquariums and museums and more, not to mention shopping if you enjoy that.

And you know, sleeping in or taking long naps on a vacation can be exquisite too. The ocean and beach are just great, regardless of the weather!
