I wade deeper and deeper as mega waves crash into me and knock me off my feet. It is exhilarating yet peaceful, a balance between awesome and calm. The waves are smooth as glass, yet powerful, like a bull. They can wow you with their beauty, then knock you off your feet while your off guard. I hear the giggling and screeching behind me and then nothing as I am again forced under water by another brute strength wave. I come up again and think, "you've got to love to the beach.

The sight of vicious waves barreling toward the beach like angry bulls attacking the matadors red cape, and a vast desert of sand sleeping beside a rudely awakened sea leaves me in au as I stand on the shoreline. The salty ocean breeze leaves the aroma of a fresh baked pretzel in its tracks every way it blows tickling the end of my nose ever so lightly as if it was a feather. Sweltering hot sand blisters the toes on my feet as they redden like the afternoon sun setting over the mountains while the crimson sun harshly burns my cheeks. The deafening roar of the waves crashing into the jagged black Jedi mixes with the ear piercing sound of irritated seagulls squealing at one another fighting for whatever food lye upon the beach. The warm salty sea air is crisp like a fresh pressed shirt yet soft like your favorite pillow convincing you to fall asleep. The beach is like a whole other world.
Zach Tetreault
I look upon the blazing red sun hung perfectly upon a deep, purple backdrop, meeting the navy blue waves at the shimering horizon. The waves let off a familiar low rumble as they roll ever so lightly over the soft sand, which had the attire of a pirate's newfound stash of golden coins. I stand ever so still, allowing the thick blanket of heat to cover me, bringing the feel of a raging inferno onto my skin. The light wispy sound of the wind carries the faint smell of sea salt on its back, which fills the air with a sharp aroma, so sharp you can just taste it. I take one last breath, savoring the moment, before turning my back to the exquisite scene, beginning my journey back to the place I call "home"...
-William Huntington
I can see the screaming kids in the ocean as the big waves make them bob and down, up and down. The cold water cools my feet from the scorching hot sand. At the end of the day i look and I can see everyone on the beach packing up for the day. The sun is dark now, the scarlet sun is lowering behind the sand dunes.
Melenzie:)
As i walk pass the fence that says Enter i instantly get that salty smell of the ocean. I hear kids laughing and giggling and they get bashed by waves and when i walk over the blazing scorched sand i see kids playing catch and waves plunging into the rocks. Also as the ocean goes in low tide and you can see the ripples in the sand. Look over and see the seagulls brawling and scaveging for food. As the one greedy seagull steals peoples food the others screech at it but it never handsover some food. I sprint into the ocean as i get that freezing feeling of the water. When ginourmus boats come flying by, waves bash over you constintly and they grasp me torwards them when a wave plummits me into the sandy seabed. I get up gasping for air another wave smashes and drags me under the water scraping my back on the sand. I get up and have no time to breathe a wave with the beauty of a horse and the power of a elephant knocks me over to my side and scun my kneecap on the sand. The ocean can be fun and horrific.
Jeffrey
I take off my flip flops as I enter the beach the hot sand numbs my feet as I tip toe through it. The fresh salty air running by my nose, with a whiff of sunscreen. As I put down my things I hear the kids screeching in the waves. The taste of salt lingers in my mouth. I look around and watch the umbrellas sway in the breeze with people underneath hiding them selfs from the sun. Thats why I love the beach.
-Melissa(:
The sun melts my fair skin as I watch the monstrous waves tumble towards me like a gymnast in her newest routine. Golden sands glisten as far as my eye can see.
The icy call from a seagull fills the warm bitter air. The brave hermit crabs bicker with one another. There is nothing more perfect then a day at this endless beach.
- Isobel Bodkin
I stomp through the boiling sand, fighting to find a spot to arrest. All I can hear is the screaming seagulls, and starving waves ringing in my ears. Suddenly I get a whiff of the calming waters, not that far away from where i stand. As I inch my way through the boiling hot sand, I stumble across and outstanding sand castle and plummet in to the sand. Sand fills my mouth with an unsatisfying twist to my taste buds. I look in the distance I realize that no what I should be worried about. The biggest crab come stumbling up to me. Missing a claw but still strong, he grasps my hand not wanting to let to for his life.
Olivia proctor
The greedy waves crash onto the beach taking whatever they can back to sea, only to return for more. I walk out to the water and angry waves fall at my feet, telling me to leave their beach. The tiny minnows dart around, investigating my feet and nibbling at my toes. I shift my leg and suddenly, the minnows are gone. A seagull screeched at me, scolding me for scaring his lunch away.
Kevin
As i reach the edge of the rocky ledge before i jump i can smell the tangy sea salt as the wind flows into my face . I can hear the children screaming as the waves plummet over there small body's and all is quite, for a moment and it is loud once again.
I can feel the rough and intensely hot sand on my hands and feet as i walk across the beach one last time. As i sit down to see the beach one last time before the end of the summer i see the sun slowly and softly lower it self beneath the sea for it to rise tomorrow for another great day at the beach.
Nathan
See the seagulls flying overhead and swooping down for the Bread that got thrown on the beaches scorching sand.
Hear,
Taste,the waves crashing down on to the sandy beach and wisps of salty water spraying into my mouth.
Feel, i can feel the waves towering over me as i wade out into the deeper water waching as the water gets darker and the waves closer.
As soon as i walk onto the beach i can smell the fresh see breeze as the waves come crashing down and wisps of salty water. As i step into the water i can here the kids yelling back and forth the salty ocean water gets darker and darker as i wade into the ocean. Then a wave towering over me splashes down.
Tyler
The sound of roaring waves crashing on the sugar beaches. children with hysterical laughter having a great time. the halarious moment when a young adult gets taken under the terrific current. the look on peoples faces when they bite into a delicious sandwich.Fish flopping exitedly in the magnificent big blue sea. My gullet being filled with salty seawater as the terrifying waves take me under. the cool crisp smell of ocean salt in the wind. my red hot body being smelted in the boiling amber colored sun. with the devestating waves cutting through me like glass and butter. what could be better?
maxwell bollous
I tremble into the water as the ruff sand below pushes on my feet. The forceful waves rise me up but suddenly drop me pulling my body under the cool chilly water. I get up as i start to notice a monstrous wave ready to tumble over me. I hear the screams of little kids, but playful ones as i feel the wave crash on me grasping me underneath its power.
Rebecca Handy
The greedy waves heading toward me while i slowely walk away.
My eyes burning by the red blazing sun so bright to directly look at.
Thousands of colorful kites soaring the bright blue sky. Seegulls screaming at one another, whiled other are strongly eating away.
Kim!
the bright sky opening my eyes so i cant sleep. the sand stiking to my hands as i walk out of the ocean. I smell the sea food from the bord walk as im runing to get cash from my parents.
brandon
I stand there in the endless ocean, thinking of the hundreds of different species lurking nearby. Wondering if some are watching as I shiver in the icy frigid water. The hungry waves pull me further out as I taste the sour sea salt. The green hair like seaweed brushes across my skin swaying back and forth. The thick smell of sea salt dances with the wind as I slowly swim back to shore. The beach, dangerous waters yet relaxing as you lay underneath the sun on the shimmering golden sand. Kylie Anderson
As I felt the smooth edges of the cream colored shell, the cool ocean breeze whiped through my hair. The waves tackeld me and I tumbeld backwards in to the powder-soft sand. As I dived into the playful waves, I saw a whole different world. Millions of things dancing and swimming! When I came up, i cherished the air as you would a Christmas gift. I could hear the seagulls cry for food, as I ran home.
Molly .L
I see the sun, scorching and gigantic as it sets. The children gigling as they run and play. The smell of sea salt in the heat of the setting sun. The seagulls knawning on a dropped sandwich that seems it is saying "help me!" I see the waves, they seem to bow to me. I fell the warmth of the last rays of sun vanish for the night.
Noah Benson
The thundering waves pound the never-ending shoreline as the red, blazing sun beats down, peeking out from behind a pure white cotton-ball cloud. I gingerly flip the page of my crisp, fresh-printed copy of my new favorite novel as the words seem to dance across the page in front of me. The scent of sea salt tickles my nose as if it is trying to make me laugh. My striped beach towel curls it rough edges around the burning, powdery sand, never letting go as the lingering fog travels off the glowing horizon in search of a new start.
- Isabel Salvatore
When I got there I was so amazed to be able to take one gigantic step onto the blazing, burning, dry sand. It felt like a fantasy to see everyone having such a great time. The first thing I realized was the smell of the ocean breeze. I could hear the kids screaming in a tone of excitement. It looked amazing to see how much fun people were having diving into the refreshing, yet salty ocean water. I could see the sand being blown off of everyone's beach towels as they ran off onto the moist, wet sand that had just been brought up to the shore, carrying the seashells from underwater. I slowly got pulled underwater as the water grabbed around my ankles and dove me under. I briefly came up from underwater as I realized my arms were covered in the soggy sand from when I got pulled under. The waves continued to crash on me as I was just beginning to stand up. Everyone was being splashed from the water, it seemed like they enjoyed it. The last thing I saw were the seagulls taking the food we laid out from under our umbrella.
-Livvy R.
I sit there on my surf board watching all the kids screaming in the waves. I felt the hard waves crashing against my back. The seagulls were like the bright white clouds falling to the ground. I saw a bright white shark fly to the sky in delight. I could hear the boom and then the waves as it was pulled backed down deep in till it could not be seen. I could taste the salt from the water in my mouth from the waves the huge creature had just made. After that i just went back to the shore hearing all the little kids yelling and feeling the full power of the waves from the big blue monster.
I stand on the burning sands of the beach as the sand slowly burns my feet .I hear the screaming of children as they get slammed by the thundering waves.I watch as the seagulls quickly dive towards innocent people enjoying a meal.My nostrils burn at the scent of salt from the enormous ocean.I begin to feel freezing water wrap around my warm feet , and as if the waters were grabbing my feet i slowly fall to the ground.My eyes opened slowly only to see a horrific sight, a gigantic wave hovering above me like lightning about to strike.It crashes on top of me, I gaze up and see the beautiful colors and lights surrounding me.I come up for air and as I breath in the salty air which burns my throat.I begin to slowly drift back to shore and lay on the wet sands.I looked at my surrounding area, all the things I had seen,smelled,touched,tasted and heard were the same.I thought "The beach is a beautiful place".
Kyle Massak
I hear the roaring waves like lions about to eat me. I felt the seaweed dancing between my toes, and all of the rigid seashells cutting my feet. I look behind me to see a beautiful kite flying around in the sky, and little kids wrestling. I taste the salty water in my watering mouth. I smell all the seafood from across the street and am begging to get some. And finally I find myself under the water, getting tumbled by a huge wave! ~Alivia Croteau
As I walk across the beach I can feel the foam from the ocean rush past my feet. I see the huge waves crash against the rocky sand and the seashells that are being washed up from the force of the waves. The smell of sea salt is wrapped around me like a giant blanket. Walking deeper and deeper into the ocean, I get dragged under the water by a wave the size of a mountain. Saltwater streams down my face as I come back up for a breath of air. Just then I get pulled back into the sea by another huge wave. I can feel seaweed run into my arms underneath the wave. I walk back to the shore and sit down on the sand watching the sun go down, wrapping up my day at the beach.
Dylan
The thundering waves bashing the scorching sand splashing salt water to my face. As I am tossed around like a rag doll by the massive waves, I am forced back on to the extinguished sand. The sun beaming across the shimmering waves an angry red and the thundering waves pull back then the calm. The waves die down to a silence.
David
I see the huge waves of in the distance. I grab my boogie board and start rushing towards the water. The cool water touches my feet as I walk into the ocean, as if it's grabbing me and pulling me in. As the waves break it sounds like roaring lions coming to get me. One of the waves I have to push trough and the taste of salt water rushes into my mouth. I see the wave that i will ride into the shore and turn around and get into position. Just as the wave breaks i jump on my board and the force of the wave pushes me with it. I have to weave through people who are standing in the shallow part and the i finally come to a stop. I had hit the shore. I then got up and ran into the ocean to do it again.
Quinn B.
Jumping out of the car, smiling from ear to ear as the salty air tickles my nose and the calming summer breeze attacks my face. Running forward I feel alive, ignoring the blistering sand underneath me. When my journey ends I drop my chair like it was acid against my skin, and throwing my bag against it. Stripping down to my bathing suit, I see the beasts I am destined to over come. For they pound the sand, waiting for their next victim. They roar and foam at the mouth as they conquer all. Adrenaline over comes and I run once again, tripping over a sand castle not yet consumed by the blue beasts. Crashing into the battle field, I am immediately over taken by one of the beasts. Let the battle begin.

Chad Anthony
As I walk down the board walk I start to hear the rush and crash of the waves also the squawk of the white bandits. I can see the white hot sun baking the sunbathers like cookies in its own oven. And smell the hot air with a hint of salt following. My feet start to burn from the heat of the sand sitting in the sun all morning long. I finally start to taste the salt on my taste buds as I take my first breath on the beach.
Jessica F.
As soon as my feet touch the melting hot sand I knew I was here PARADISE! The relaxed, hushed waves approaching you, quiet but explosive at the same just like a strike of lightning. The sun intense ray bioling the kids skin as if they where in an oven. Seagulls exchanging blows from one another for mouth watering food. Little kids diving into the mighty ocean, getting swallowed up and spit right back up. The day at the beach.
Mike tenie
The waves crashing and crashing as I get closer. Closer and closer I get. Crashing and crashing go the waves. So hungry as you can tell as it bites on the sand. Stil getting closer and closer towards those hungry waves .Very very hungry waves. Seagulls and fish terrified by the waves.the waves that are biteing down on the sand. While I get closer and closer.
The dark, fearless ocean stretches miles and miles on. Soft sand beneath me scurries down the holes my feet make as I walk towards the silent, crashing waves. Sea salt scents the air in the full moonlight. Tiny, chirping seabirds fly around jumping cod, waiting to snatch their prey. And as I sit with my long, narrow feet dipping into the icy water, I watch the tall, blue-green grass flow back and forth in the cool sea breeze.
Emma J.
The ocean.So calm as the sand sucks me in like a big monster as I gasp forward for air.For in the corner of my eye the sun so bright as it sinks down over the horizon.I watch the waves lower as one last giant sinks me back into the sand.Its power settles like it is asleep.For I now know night has arrived...The moon shines over the water like a mirror.I now let it all rest... Donavon
As I step onto the scolding hot sand with my bare feet I can see the dark blue water rising and turning into monsters, then crashing onto the wet sand. I take in a deep breath and can smell the salty, ice water. When I look straight ahead all I can see is the blinding sun reflecting against the glassy water, burning my eyes. I take a few more steps and before you know it, my feet touch the freezing cold water of the ocean.
DB
The exciting screams of children playing in the salty water fills my ears
The seagulls soaring above me in search of something to eat
As I sit there with my feet buried in the cool sand I sip my sweet lemonade
Watching the roaring waves crashing violently into the shore
And the smell of the delicious food from the boardwalk is making my stomach grumble like an angry monster and as I'm standing on the rigid rocks I slip and almost plummet into the dark blue deep ocean
The sun glistening onto my long body like toast in a toaster
And as I leave that fanamanal place I walk on the hot tar scorching like lava on my fragile feet
-Maya
As I sit in the hot lava that people call sand, burning my feet like lava rocks. I pop up like a kangaroo and bolted to the beach like a cheetah with rocket boosters. Extinguishing the the fire monsters on my burnt toes. The waves crash and scerrie to my cooled body. Making me chilled to the bone. It's a feeling thats like having 20 icecreams in one day, extraordinary.
-Sarah
I run out into the sea, dodging waves by turning sideways. I carry my boogie board by my side. As I look out into the blue enigma I can see the perfect wave. The blue monster is barreling toward me as I place my board against my waist. As the wave curls over me, I start to kick as hard as I can. The monster lifts me up my heart is pounding. I am traveling at the mercy of the wave. Apparently, the wave had no mercy. It flings the front of my neon green board straight down and I am forced under water. The world went dark and my only instinct was to swim up. I fell the surface and I gasp for air. The air never tasted so sweet.
Steven
My foot softly steps into the sandy shore. I proceed towered the sea as it greets me into the almost ever lasting ocean. I take my foot and place it in the ocean with tiny pebbles that surround my feet.but it dose not last because the ocean sweeps every pebble that was near and took it all away to never be seen . Now the sea towers over me and collapses the salty water fills my ears and nose. As i breech the surface the sun and i come face to face and warms my face from the icy water. As i make my decent towards my bright orange towel the sand clings to feet as i complete my day at a day at a beach. By patrick
As I walk into the place that is called paradise, the first thing that i see is a bodyless man, his head is set on top of the sand, laghing at some people in the water. Im walking into the huge sand pit, but it feels like im walking on fire, along with the feeling of the sun on my skin, turnning me into toast. Theres nothing better than that.
Brandi.
As I walked I could feel the soft hot sand slipping through my feet. It has been 10 seconds, I smell fried fish. I walked to the water, the water was cold like ice. It has been 30 seconds, the water came blasting at me like I was a was wood.
It is now it has been 58seconds and now I go swimming.
Zack
Furioshious waves crash over my head as I struggle to get my footing. The air scented with the sweet smell of the sea. I can hear the other people screaming and fighting the waves along side me. The water around feels cold like ice in the middle of winter. The salt gives of a taste that drys the rim of my mouth. I see the next wave coming, but all I can do is watch as the strength of the sea crashes over me.
- Jake
We wait in caution, and excitement for the roaring waves to crash into the dripping sand. I feel the icy salt filled water flow against my sunken feet in the sand as if my toes were tiny sand crabs, hiding from the monstrous waves. Either we are pumbled into the freezing water, or we dive into them leaving us with satisfaction. Nasty seagulls screech in need of food, children laughing and giggling while frolicking in the soft sand. Disappointment covers our minds as we feel the slow small ripples of sea water pass our anticipating body's. As we gaze into the distant sunset, oranges and pinks, beautiful blues and yellows amaze us. Daydreaming about the sunset, a massive wave forces me to tumble into the oceans water, stirring me like a chefs pot of soup. As I finally surface and smell the salty air, I see the other kids announce the terrors and desperation for another.
Tricia
The setting sun casts a rosy glow on the the dark monstrous waves that are crashing onto shore. Gulls are taking off signaling their day of fun is over. All life I can see is gone leaving me with the fierce waves. They beckon to me, telling me to swim again in their icy blue depths. Froth swirls around my feet and the sand is in their rhythm. Back and forth, and back and forth. The waves pull on my feet as if asking me to come play. The moon soon comes out with a sprinkling of stars. I could stay and watch the beach forever, but I have to go back. When I finally leave, the wind whips my hair and the boardwalk creaks under my sandy feet. I look back one last time and say goodbye to the beach, and already ask myself when I will come back.
-Alison R.
My body had gone numb with cold as I stood in the icy waters of the brutal ocean, listening to the waves crashing all around me. I held my hands by my side and anticipated the excitement of yet another wave . In the distance There was a rush of water approaching the shore getting larger and larger. In the next second the wave had become a monster speeding toward me. I was suddenly knocked off my feet and forced under the water into a different world of silence and darkness. The water had wrapped itself around me like arms sealing me from the world above. When my feet felt the soft sand on the ocean floor I kicked as hard as I could and broke to the surface. I gulped in as much air as my lungs could hold and waited for the next wave.
Devyn
Calm, gentle waves brushing by my shoulders. The sun shimmers in the glassy water. Sand castles are being build by existed children on the rocky sand. The horizon in the distance is a spectacular view, yet it's has the slightest raggedness to it. As I look up at the clouds, puffy and white I smell the bitter seagrass smell that makes my nose twitch, as my mouth fills with the retched salt water. Turning around spitting out the disgusting taste leads me to see the fierce waves roaring tall above my head, little did I know that the beast would take me down into its layer.
~Kaitlyn
As the beaming sun hits me in the back, I can hear the waves hurdling to shore. I can smell the salty sea smell of the water in the air above, and the feeling of the burning sand in between my toes leaving footprints everywhere I go. Little kids making sand castles as the parents sit under umbrellas.
-Tori
As I was entering the sandy premises I could here the screaming children and the laughter of adults. I watch as a seagull captures a delicious sandwich left by a family who went to take a dip in the warm florida water. As I walk up and down the beach searching for the perfect spot to settle in the scorching sun I feel the burning at my feet from the lava rocks they call sand. While I listen to the ocean waves crashing fiercely I think to myself "this is going to be a great day at the beach."
-jack
Sprinting, and grinning wide I finally find myself on the beach that can be described as many different bubbling emotions, romantic, ferocious, calm, peaceful, joyful, a different one each journey. It occurs to me that in this bright day it will have a small portion of each of them. Caressing the deep dark navy blue water with my hands as I take in the smell of pure salt, I see it, the seaweed thats disgustingly brown like the leather on a football, and the sliminess that it has, flowing through the water. I feel the wild smirk come onto my face as I plot in my head. Just as I begin to execute my plan by picking it up the stinging of my hand stops me, a feeling a extreme panic rushes over me. The feelings of electricity flow throughout my hands as I realize it was a jellyfish that had stung me. Right then I noticed every little detail, my family wiht a puzzled expression all over their face, squeezing my hands like squeezing a bull, trying not to fall off as if it will make the electricity in my pumping red hand stop, in the backround I hear the roaring macines polluting the air as they drive by even. I could feel the scream rising in my burning throat, as this, deadly battle with the Monster Jelly, began.
Sierra
The roaring waves come at me as I prepare myself for the impact. Still they send me sprawling underwater. As I come up I hear screeching of kids and the squawking of seagulls. Then before I know it a wave knocks right back underwater with amazing force. I stand back up my eyes burning from the salty water, not being able to see a thing I get bashed by another wave that worsens the stinging in my eyes. I try to wipe my eyes but the salt just seems to just be lying in my eyes like a baby in his crib. Some of my sight comes back, and I look behind me. I notice that the roaring waves wash me back on the golden sand.
Tyler Mol.
As I stood there, watching the hungry white waves crash against the beach, pebbles and seashells were dragged into the waves' tight grasp. As I stumbled through the angry ocean, a gigantic horseshoe crab scurried across the bottom of the surf chasing the current. As I continued to stumble through the furious ocean, sand dollars arose from the sinking sand and little kids rushed over to snatch them out of the water. I then said to myself, "man do I love the beach."
Patrick W.
The water glistened from the mid-summers day sun. Fish darted in the water like majestic birds soaring in the sky. I see a pretty good wave rushing towards me, and hop onto my boogie board. It was too late. The wave had decreased in speed and size, so I only rode over it. I then realize that I can no longer touch the sea-floor, and the people on the shore looked as small as ants. Worry takes over my body. When me and my friend started swimming on the beach We were only a few yards off shore, and now we were more than a hundred feet away. Perhaps We were even two hundred feet away, but that did not matter to me, nor did I care about catching some more waves. I thought of how we could get back to shore and what would happen to us if we couldn't get back. The sea was a force not to be reckoned with. If it wanted to drag you out to sea, there was normally nothing you could do if you drifted to far. The sea was angry with us.It wanted to consume us in the isolated sea, secluded from civilization. But no matter how hard we swam towards the shore, we only moved farther away from the beach. Luck had hit me. One significant was roared toward me, seeming to want to save me from my fate. I get on my boogie board and rode on the majestic wave, until I made it to shore. My friend not far behind. When we were on shore my friend said " that just shows you how precious life can be!" He was absolutely right.

Siting there on my beach chair, watching as a huge wave is about to pummel the soaked sand. Kids all ages start cheering, screaming in laughter,or have horrific gasps. They grab there boogie boards and run to the water. I thought to myself' "I'm missing out on the greatest moment on the beach!" I grab my boogie board and sprint out to the edge of the water. I try to get a spot in the water but the water is crowded with kids. Lifeguards get prepared for the massive wave that will crash against the shore. Kids start chickening out because the wave seems to get bigger and bigger with every inch as it gets closer to the beach. People get anxious for the wave they are about to ride as the Sun scorches their backs. I can hear more kids joining into the action. But their to late! The huge wave is already in front of me. I turn around quickly and lay on the board and ride the wave back to the shore.
Alex
As I approach the beach a wave of excitement fills my heart. I see the shallow foot prints in the light moist sand . I can taste the salt in the air , i can feel it to. The Crystal blue ocean water twinkles like diamonds and crashes against the the cheerful people. The sound of laugher from other visitors mixes with the loud roar of the ocean and the sea gulls sounding like a .... A slow and peaceful breeze is in the air. The sun is setting and i can feel the beach getting cooler. Everybody is leaving but i choose to stay.The warm colors of red , orange and pink fill the clouds , you can hear the birds flying in the distance. As i walk on the edge of the water , waves calmly hitting my feet.I think to my self I love the beach. Can i stay?
morgan.
As I step onto the border line between the beach and the parking lot I can hear the waves rumbling like the noise of thunder looking for something to digest. Already my hair is blowing in my face a can taste the fresh sea salt as its passing my mouth. I can just smell the salty fishy air, embracing me as its putting me in a trance. I pick up some sea glass and feel the smooth texture of fascinating unique object. I sigh with relaxsation, now I am finnally at the beach!
Cassandra DiGeronimo
When I walk down the board walk down to the beautiful ocean, I could smell all the hot dogs people have eaten. I saw that a seagal stole one from an inasint little boy. When I walked on the beach i could feel the silky sand between my toes. Most of all I loved it when I felt the cool breeze slowly cross my face and whip through my hair. I could barley hear the puersing screach of the seagals anymore because of the loud roar of the ocean's waves crashing up on shore. When the wvaes and the waves were carshing I could instantly taste all the sea salt in the air. What ever you do though please go to the beach, youwill have thebesttime of yourlife.
Jessica Tibbetts
Crash ! Waves nock me off my feet into the salty water as they recede back into the ocean. I here people laughing behind me.Isee a gigantic wave slam right into me sending under water! I jump up out of the water and run as fast as I could.

As I leaped out of the boat,cold salty waves immediately attacked me. The feeling is like the sensation of going into a tub of ice, freezing, cold and chilling your spine. The water was the hunter I am the prey. I got out of the water as fast as possible dreading at the boats edge. With a jolt of courage I jumped in the deadly water again ,I saw it like the end of a horror movie I wasn't bad in the end.
The roaring wind fills my ears blowing my hair this way and that.
The smooth scorching sand heats my feet.
Mist falls to my skin as the waves crash to the sand.
Hands grab my wrists as they pull me closer and closer to the numbing cold water.
I can smell the fishy salty water making me gag in disgust.
I step into the startling icy water.
The heaving waves knock me to my knees filling my mouth with the taste of salt that makes me want to hurl.
I see my friends full of laughter trying to pull to my ice cold feet.
I charge at my friends making the squeal and run away.
As the day turns into night fillIng the air with cold teeth chattering wind.
I collapse to the ground in Exhaustion.
Not wanting to leave such a wonderful place i sit there staring at the bright Moon.

I smell the Salty air as it takes away every smell imaginal while I see the decaying boardwalk and hear the Children playing so loud i feel as if i could walk forever and still hear them. But I also see the jellyfish lining up on the beach ready to attack and feel the coral as it stabs my feet as if i feel Im in a nightmare. I see the driftwood on the beach filled with ancient secrets but not worthy to share. The beach is filled with things unexcepted.

I run out into the sea, dodging waves by turning sideways. I carry my boogie board by my side. As I look out into the blue enigma I can see the perfect wave. The blue monster is barreling toward me as I place my board against my waist. As the wave curls over me, I start to kick as hard as I can. The monster lifts me up my heart is pounding. I am traveling at the mercy of the wave. Apparently, the wave had no mercy. It flings the front of my neon green board straight down and I am forced under water. The world went dark and my only instinct was to swim up. I fell the surface and I gasp for air. I felt nothing. I was still under water. I was under for only a second, but it felt like hours. When i got back up, I took the most relieving breath of my life. The air never tasted so sweet.

As I'm sitting on the sand, I can see the fierce waves coming towards me. I can feel the water touching me and trying to pull me in. There are kids playing by the water, when suddenly a wave crashes into them and they all fall down. Seagulls are flying above me, acting like hungry dogs. People are running around, like something is chasing them.

My first step on the beach was on the hot scorching sand. As I pass threw the sand I hear the screeching of the seagulls and smell of the beautiful ocean breeze skating on the top of my head. The salty air I taste in my mouth tickling my taste buds. I feel the sand under my feet in the water the current pulling me in and they take me on a underwater adventure. As I stand up the fish squirm away in fear.

Standing there on the grainy sand, even just halfway in the water, i grow totally num from the icy waves. "come on!" they say, "the waters fine, don't be a chicken!" But then just as i had predicted, a monstrous wave reaches out, as if its trying to embrace me, but soon grows too big and sends me plunging under its grasp. When i come out gasping, drinking in the salty sweet air they laugh and say "why is it always me?!" and drag my self out of the water. Like history repeating it self, I'm back on the sand, watching children play with their kites, as they go up, and up, and up to the clouds. And i stair at the ocean, watch its waves go up and down, up and down. Like history repeating itself, again, and again. Isabella

The waves echoing in my ear. The rough sand rubbing up against my feet. The bone crushing waves pounding on me in the water. The fresh air inflates my nose with salty air. The sand scratching my back as i tumble through the waves. The current taking me away into the water. I cant see anything but the ferociously blue water. I finally find my way back to shore and think about how awesome that was! Ian jarvis
As i cross the bridge approaching the furious ocean, i start to see kites of many shapes and marvelous patters soaring through the beautiful sky. I can then spot greedy waves crashing into frolicking children onto the scorching fine sand. When i reach my destination, i can start to smell the aroma of the sandy ocean breeze, and hear the gigantic waves gathering shells and crabs like as if they were collectors. Deeper and deeper i travel into the wide setting of the amazing water, i can start to feel sharp rocks under my feet. My day at the beach was an exciting adventure.

I look into the ocean, the waves roar as if they were lions and I had the meat. They look Terrifying on the outside but on the inside there just tiny little kittens. The waves are humongous they reach up to the sky skimming the clouds. I'm not afraid of them. I know I'm smarter, stronger, braver. I dive in, right into the pile of Lions. Their Furious! They all gather together to make one Gigantic wave, and they raise up into the deep blue sky. And they plummeted down towards my small body. The cold icy water slaps my body. It feels like you jumped off a cliff and landed in a belly flop into freezing water. But I stood up and looked the devils right in the eye and walked away with dignity.

The fruit colored sunset seeps into my soul,the sweet aroma of salt stings my nose. The sun reaches out to kiss the waves giving them the sparkle of a gem. The seagulls screech in sheer terror as the foaming beasts of the sea reach up to grab its cowerding prey. Just when it seems like the end the monsters bow down to the golden king in the sky. The white beasts wash ashore sparkling treasures as offerings for almost destroying the kings creatures. As punishment to all the suns rays bring down the scorching heat baking the sunburned sand. The sun dissapears bringing the charcoal moon into place. The lions keep on surging toward the sand forever more.

As I sink into the sand I feel the pebbles and broken shells beneath me. I listen for the sound of waves running towards the rocks and seeping through the cracks that had eroded over the years. As I take glance behind my shoulder I can see people playing catch and kids building sand castles with there buckets and shovels.

Today was the first time I have ever seen the ocean. I couldn't believe my shimmering eyes, it wouldn't stop, miles and miles of icy blue water as warm as the beating sun. Families all over children dashing through the ferocious waves. My brain stopped, To the point i couldn't take a single step. My parents told me to go and pretend it's a lake so I tried. Slowly I went down to the roaring waves at 14 years old I shouldn't be afraid. Then I ran in the water like all the little kids did. Then all the parents were calling there children back up to shore. The rush of the waves and the sour salt against my lips the water flooding in my ear. The water seeping in my eyes burning like hot Chile peppers. That was the last time I was seen...
