It's better to vacation at the beach because it's more relaxing than the mountain. The beach is lovely to look at and calming to the mind and spirit. You can get more involved at the beach than in the mountain. At the beach you can swim, take pictures, lay out for a tan, play volleyball and have a picnic whereas in the mountain you are more limited to camping, climbing and not much more. The beach is less hazardous whereas the mountain can be a little hazardous with wild snakes and not a lot of people around.
The beach is a better vacation spot for a lot of reasons. There are people that enjoy the mountain more though. The mountain is great once in awhile but it can get boring whereas the beach has many attractions, making it harder for you to be bore. At the beach you can be more involved personally. You can dive in the water and swim, surf, snorkel, exercise, play volleyball, picnic, and bonfire, fly kites and swim with your dog on beach dog. The lists to the activities that you can do at the beach are endless.
The feeling you get at the beach is a great one and the mountain can't beat it. When you're at the beach you feel cool and calm with the wind rushing through your face. The fresh, clear blue ocean with the seals swimming around is an unbeatable site. The things you can do with your friends and family there is great too. You can ride a bike, rollerblade, play your guitar, build a bonfire, have a picnic, play volleyball, and go on a date, swimming, surfing and taking pictures. I don't know a lot of people that don't like the beach. People go the beach every chance they get. It's relaxing for your mind.
There is nothing like eating Ruby on the pier and looking at the seal swimming in the ocean with your lover. Burger and fries taste much better at the ocean than anywhere else. Not to mention, many fisher men can't stay away from the pier. Lovers also preferred the pier as their dating site. The romantic feelings generate easier at the beach. It's the place to get the mood on faster than the mountain.
The mountain is dry and hazardous with wild snakes and bears. The mountain has less people around and can be dangerous just in case you have a heart attack and needed help whereas there are many people at the beach that can be there when you need them. There is limited activity you can do at the mountain. The mountain is not children friendly because it's harder to climb and you get tire.
