What to do at the beach
- Thread starter Smiling JOe
- Start date
Merman and I enjoy socializing with our SoWal friends. That's what has turned a simple beach vacation into a perfect beach reunion, every time we visit. 
And a bit of kayaking and bicycling doesn't hurt, either, especially when we come down in the "cooler" seasons. I'm just waiting for everyone to discover what we've discovered: that SoWal is even better when it's not the months of June, July, and August. I particularly love October at the beach--water still warm enough to swim in, but the high heat and humidity has disapated and it's lovely being outdoors all day and evening.

Visiting with friends I've made in SoWal, meeting new people, reading anywhere (porch, coffee shop, couch, beach), bike riding (as of this next trip).
I try to do one-two new things every time I'm there. I'd like to explore more (parks, Eden Gardens, the different communities, the library) because even though it's only 18 miles or so on SoWal, I've only seen a tiny bit of it so far. I think I'll spend this next trip walking/biking Alys Beach - Rosemary Beach area to get to know it better.

We all you too Miss Kitty!!!! That's an impressive list you've got there!!! :clap_1:
We like to explore new areas when we are in SoWal. We just take off walking or drive to a certain area, park and walk around (we love to look at the houses). We would love to visit some of the parks on our next trip and I would love to try this kayak thing out (I think). My husband thinks we should take a boat out on the bay side, cruise around and watch the sun set from a different perspective. And I would like to either bring our bikes or rent so we can cruise along 30-A...... but most of the time we are ON THE BEACH!!!!
I would love to meet some SoWal buds next time we are there, if anyone is around. That would just make it even better!!!
