Grayton beach behaving badly

[Zebraspots]

It wasn't me - I peed in the Gulf sunday!

Don't want to think about it. I think with the vehicles on the beach (and now the peeing) the locals are letting the tourists know we can take our tents and go somewhere else. Actually, we gave up on the tent, since the locals were so against those. We're saving it for tailgating. Ellen

People have been peeing on the beach for decades. It has nothing to do with chasing tourists away, and everything to do with a full bladder.

Not everyone with an automobile on Grayton Beach is a local....just saying!!

I thought it was the oldest tradition in Grayton!

I would just be thankful a towel was being used.

Many territorial mammals use scent-marking to signal the boundaries of their territories; the marks may be deposited by urination, by defecation, or by rubbing parts of the bodies that bear specialised scent glands against the substrate.

Maybe she/he was just trying to mark the SUV.

My family meets here each and every summer. My parents are now retired here. WE LOVE GRAYTON. However, Sunday at the beach is out of control. The beach is packed with vehicles. There is no space for a chair and umbrella. This sunday we observed an all time low... A local decided to make the "potty place" next to their vehicle and actually held up a towel while others urinated next to the truck. REALLY? ... I am greatly saddend by the disregard for this beautiful beach. We have always loved Grayton as it is laid back and "funky". But - urinating on the beach is just a different kind of funky!!!

If you were really offended by this maybe you should try a different beach. I personally don't go to Grayton beach very often because it is overly crowded and you can imagine all the pee in the lake!

How do they justify allowing vehicles on the beach? Where are the environmentalists? Not to mention the oil leaking onto the sand from some of the beach buggies that supposedly pass for cars.

If you don't like it...just go somewhere else...it's real simple. Grayton Beach AND it's auto's are an incredible way to spend Sunday Funday!!!
