A to Z's of Beach Life

I've learned a lot of new words since starting beach life so I thought I'd make a list because who doesn't love a good list? Some of these aren't new but they're still beach favorites!

A - Astronomical High Tide. Flooding everywhere, amazing to see.

B - Beach obviously, you can't have A to Z beach life without it.

C - Castle, beach life isn't so without lots of sand castles.

D - Dunes. Keep off, they protect the shore.

E - Ebb tide. The best time for a beach visit, tide pools and no towel moving.

F - Fish, they're out there and sometimes they're close, ick.

G - Gull. Don't feed them, please!

H - High Tide. To me, it means less beach and bigger crowds, the best time for naps.

I - Italian ice. Sold on the beach to keep you cool.

J - Jellyfish, you can't pee on them it's a myth. Try white vinegar instead.

K - Knot. How wind speed is measured offshore, good thing I don't have a boat.

L - Longshore current. A current that pulls you parallel to the beach in one direction or the other (at my beach that's north/south).

M - Marsh. I moved here for the ocean but fell in love with the marshes too, so much wildlife to see!

N - Neap tide. Why the water level rarely changes some days.

O - Ocean. Again you can't have an A to Z beach post without it!

P - Pluff Mud. Generates a smell that takes some getting use to.

Q - EQuatorial Tides - When the moon is directly over the equator.

R - Rip Current. Dangerous seaward current, swim paralell to the shore to escape it.

S - Seashells. Catching them in the waves is my favorite way to find them.

T - Tourists, they're there but the further you walk from the access the fewer the tourists.

U - Umbrella, great for a few minutes of shade when you need it.

V - Vacation. How most people beach, even myself.

W - Waves. Crashing on the shore or jumping them in the water, waves are awesome.

X - EXtra Sunscreen. Okay, I had to stretch for X but seriously protect yourself.

Y - BouY. Floats in the water, make great pictures if you can get close.

Z -  Zone. Know your zone, mine is A. That means I leave first.

Anything A to Z that I'm missing?
