600 Words3 Pages

The voices of the glistening blue sea will obliterate your stressful mind.

A person will be amazed by what they see, hear, feel, smell, and taste at the beach. Although, tourist attractions in Pensacola are marvelous, they’re well-known for having refreshing seafood.
When I first stepped foot on the beach, I saw a massive red and white beach ball; spelling out Pensacola Beach. A flock of seagulls soared to shore to search for food. People at the beach were blasting music out of their cooler and dancing. I positioned my rear-end in my lounge chair while drinking a Virgin Daiquiri. The Virgin Daiquiri was filled with juicy strawberries with a cherry on top, it was extremely mouth-watering. I witnessed carefree children running across the beach while holding kites gleefully. An older couple strolls the beach with metal detectors searching for treasure. A group of adults drunk socially enjoying the beautiful scenery. I took photographs of the sand, palm trees, people, and the ocean too. After relaxing in the blazing sun, I decided to take a swim. …show more content…

My feet started to descend through the ocean floor, because of the slushy sand at the bottom. The water smelled like a mist of fresh air and seaweed. I spotted three surfers gliding across the tides like penguins, splashing water in my mouth. The water left an undesirable salty taste in mouth, it was horrible. When I exit out of the lagoon, I notice my skin felt precisely smooth as a baby 's bottom. I went to the restroom to wash the gritty sand off me. However, it was a tedious process. Even though the beach was relish, I departed from the beach; heading towards the

  • Zadie Smith's Find Your Beach

    814 Words  | 4 Pages

    In “Find Your Beach”, a narrative essay written by Zadie Smith, the writer expresses her belief that is one is adamant enough, one can arrive at their beach - a paradise-like environment that people dream of, but is believed to be very hard to obtain. The idea of a person’s “beach” being hard to discover can be observed through Smith’s personal background, as it is almost mythical for this English writer living in Soho, Manhattan to come by a beach. What I took away from Smith’s text is the idea that when you finally arrive at your beach, “sooner or later you will be sitting on that beach wondering what comes next”. Overall, I interpreted one’s beach being defined as a person’s happiness. It is something we all have the potential to posses

    Growing up, I would go there to play with my siblings and climb the jumbles of rocks that overlooked what seemed like the never-ending vast body of water, pretending that it went on forever. The place not only represented my childhood, but also the start of the end of it. Memories flooded back of endless summer nights of young teenage girls who would sneak down to the hidden beach to get too tipsy and laugh and flirt with boys and pretend that we were grown up. The beach represented not only childhood innocence, but also the longing to leave childhood behind, and this slower sluggish version of myself knew it. It seemed almost poetic that the place I had once felt most alive at would be the place my lifeless body would be pulled towards, almost as if gravity had propelled my body there
