Every memory on a beach is special; every moment on a beach, a memory. From full moon nights with campfires to days spent soaking up the sun and waves, searching the sands looking for seashells and feisty crabs or just lazing around till sunset. Every passing hour at the beach has a personality of its own. It fills you with positivity and makes you feel completely at ease. There is so much that we can learn from the beach and the sea, from the waves and the sand, from the sparkling sunshine on the surface to the calm breezes blowing a melody into your ears.
