    It’s no wonder holiday-makers flock to the coastal towns throughout the UK for their caravan holidays. The sandy setting allows for many fun activities for the whole family. Take a look at our top seven things to do at the beach:

    sandcastles on the beach

    Build sandcastles – who can resist trying to build the biggest one? The classic beach activity s fun for kids of all ages, just let your imagination run wild. Why not hunt out some shells to decorate your castle.

    Take a dip in the sea – a great way to cool off and have some fun.

    Play beach games – there are so many options – try volleyball or frisbee. These games are a great way to get some exercise and have some fun in the sun.

    Explore rock pools – the rock pools are a great place to spot small marine creatures, such as crabs, fish, and starfish. Bring a net and bucket along with you so that you can collect some of the creatures to observe them more closely.

    Go surfing – this is a great way to get some exercise and have some fun in the waves. Many coastal towns have surf schools so look one up and take some lessons!

    Take a boat ride – a relaxing activity and a great way to see the coastline from a different perspective while also spotting some wildlife.

    Go fishing – if you’re a fan of fishing, you can bring your gear to the beach and try your luck at catching some fish.
