Calling all mermaids who love a great beach quote! Changing the world is a fantastic goal to have... but it can be a very daunting task. Instead of getting overwhelmed, just opt to channel your inner mermaid and embrace all things salt water and seashells.

Ahhhh... coffee. If you are a coffee lover and a beach lover then there are no two things that go better together. This isn't just an ordinary coffee quote. This is a two for one special. A coffee lover quote with a side of beach quote? Yes, please. If you have a great pic of your morning coffee with the beautiful backdrop of the ocean, please share it on our Facebook page! 

Raise your hand if you agree!! It is important to believe in yourself, to believe in rest, to believe in the pause, and to believe in the healing power of a day (or a week) at the beach. Salt water, sand, and sun is good for the soul. Are you joining the "go to the beach" lifestyle revolution?

Has your life journey taken you down many different paths? If yes, then there have probably been many ups and downs throughout the adventure. If you are looking for a pathway with nothing but positive vibes and plenty of warmth, then find a path that leads to Oak Island.

There is something magical about the tides. The ocean tides around the world are driven by the moon and its cycles. The place where the ocean meets the sand is truly where eternity begins and ends. 

Memories made at the beach are the best memories. It is a place where you can let your hair down, sink your toes in the sand, and connect with your favorite people. It is the place where we can all be a kid again. What is your favorite memory made at the beach? Your footprints and sandcastles may have washed away but the memories last forever.

If you are a beach lover, you will totally agree with this fabulous beach quote. Any day at the beach is better than a day elsewhere. Give us every kind of beach day... cloudy day, warm day, cool day, a day with waves, a day without waves, toes in the sand day, bum in a beach chair day, drink in hand day... all the days!! However, sunny days with a Carolina blue sky is still the favorite.

A beach vacation may not be covered by your health insurance but it is definitely good for your health! Vitamin D is the preferred vitamin of choice these days, and what a better place to soak up some Vitamin D than at the beach?! Do yourself and your health (mental, physical, emotional, and relational) a favor and start planning your next beach getaway today!

What is it about the beach that makes us smile? The waves, the sand, the breeze ... or just the vastness of the ocean. All of these things combine to make a trip to the beach one of the most restorative vacations ever. We hope you smiled today! We can't wait to see you for your Oak Island beach vacation. We hope you enjoyed these fun beach quotes.
