There's nothing quite like the feeling of sand between your toes and the sound of waves crashing on the shore. A beach trip is the perfect way to unwind, soak up some sun, and enjoy the natural beauty of the ocean. To help you make the most of your coastal adventure, we've put together the ultimate beach trip itinerary.
Morning: Start with a Sunrise
6:00 AM - Sunrise Serenity Begin your beach day by watching the sunrise. Arrive at the beach early to catch the first light of day. Bring a blanket and a thermos of coffee, and relish the peaceful moments as the sun emerges from the horizon.
7:00 AM - Morning Yoga After soaking in the sunrise, indulge in a beach yoga session. The calming sound of the waves provides the perfect backdrop for stretching and mindfulness. Many beaches offer morning yoga classes, or you can follow along with a yoga app. (Bonus Tip: Keep your Jelli M1 mask on while you do yoga to prevent breathing in unwanted sand and debris. Don’t worry, it’s completely breathable)
