4 Reasons To Take Your Family on a Beach Vacation!

Are you wondering where to take your family for your next vacation? Try booking one of our condos in Orange Beach or Gulf Shores. Our condos are are within just a short distance of popular dining, activities and attractions. Here’s a list of reasons why we think a trip to the beach is just what you need!

 1.) Going to the Beach Forces You to Take a Break from Technology!

Let’s be honest, it seems that technology of some sort quite often takes up most of our time. Taking a break from the cellphones, laptops and electronic devices can be quite therapeutic. Being at the beach gives you time to enjoy activities such as kayaking, boat riding, beach volleyball, and sand-castle making - all while being technology free! 

2.) The Beach is Good For You!

Yes, you read that right! Spending time at the beach actually has wonderful health benefits that make it worth all the planing, packing and traveling. Did you know that walking on sand stimulates the 200,000+ nerve endings on the soles of your feet? The sand also acts as a natural exfoliant that rubs away dead skin and lets your pores breathe! Even the sound of the waves crashing alters your brain waves that reduces stress levels and helps you relax. Now who doesn’t love relaxing?

3.) Spending Time at the Beach Sparks Creativity and Imagination

Kids spend a great deal of time indoors, glued to the TV or an electronic device. The great thing about the beach is that it’s natures own playground! When children are exposed to the sandy change of scenery, their brain switches to exploring mode! They run, play, splash in the water, fill up their buckets, collect seashells and create master pieces out of sand and water. All of these things improve motor and cognitive skills all while feeding their imagination!  

4.) A Trip to the Beach Makes for Wonderful Memories

Spending time at the beach requires a lot of interaction! Whether it’s swimming in the ocean, gathering sandy treasures, or admiring a beautifully painted sunset - you are constantly creating lifelong memories!
