Never understood this thing when we have warm weather, people think “ooh let’s go to the seaside”.

Roads get clogged, parking is a struggle, massive queues to buy ice cream, food and to
use what few toilets the beach has and super crowded. This is my hell.

You don’t understand why people want to go to the beach when it’s sunny?

If you don’t want to, that’s fine, go when it’s lashing down if you prefer, I imagine it’s much quieter.

Lucky enough to live in Cornwall so am able to beat the crowds at certain times of the year. I actually tend not to go to the beach very much & got put off swimming last summer because of all the sewage being dumped in the sea, although I’ve been recommended a clean place to go which is very close by & beautiful too.

Do you live near a beach? I did and it got crowded as you say but I knew I didn’t own the beach

Don't go then? My personal hell would be something like ibiza party boat foam party... so I don't go!

Most people don’t have much choice. Annual leave of 20 days a year, about 2 of which are sunny. You takes your chances when you can. Grab life!

Going to the wrong beach then

Not my idea of fun but people obviously think it's worth the hassle for a day by the sea with the kids.

So don’t go?
