A trip to the beach, be it for a day out or as part of an extended holiday is something the whole family can enjoy. Here are some things you can plan to do for a memorable time on the shore.

Build Sandcastles
This may sound cliché, but it still works great as a family activity that is easy to enjoy when staying at beachside properties the likes of Avani Bentota Resort. If you and the kids have a touch of “Frozen” fever with the song “do you want to build a snowman?” in your head, look to recreate “Olaf” out of sand too!
Dine on the Shore
You can plan a picnic on the sand which is an ideal addition to a day out at the beach with family or friends. There’s even a touch of romance that can be experienced; for example, those staying at a Bentota hotel can look to enjoy a beachside dinner amidst seaside serenades.
Play Sports & Games
The sandy shores offer the perfect setting for some exciting games. Sports like football, volleyball, cricket, and rugby can all be enjoyed on the sand while throwing around a frisbee or engaging in a game of tag can be loads of fun too!
Unwind in the Sand
You don’t have to engage in very active pursuits to have fun either. Yoga on the shore, reading your favourite book, collecting seashells, listening to music and taking sunset strolls are all great ways to unwind and soak up the magical coastal atmosphere too.
