17.Seek Out a Unique BeachVISIT
Oregon.For sun and fun away from the crowded beaches of Florida,check out the Oregon coast and its 363miles of gorgeous shoreline,stretching from the Columbia River south to the redwood forests of California.Every beach is public and free."The coast is a perfect place to watch sea lions sun themselves or simply see the mighty Pacific waves crash in the sunset followed by a seafood feast in one of the busy fishing communities located between the coves (小海湾),"says Bramblett.July and August aren't peak gray whale migration season,but there's still a good chance you could catch a glimpse of some of the 200 whales that spend the summers off the Oregon coast.
SLEEP
Next to a lighthouse.Imagine yourself an ancient mariner when you book a room overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Heceta Head Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast in Yachats,Oregon.The working lighthouse,which dated to 1894,cast a bright beam 21 miles out to sea,making it the brightest light on the Oregon coast.The cliff-top rooms at the Light Keeper's home nearby aren't cheap-you'll shell out up to 385 foraweekendnightduringpeakseason(priceincludesaseven-coursebreakfast).
BEWARE
Dangerous currents.Unless you love cold water (or wear a wet suit),you may not want to venture into the sea off the Oregon coast,even during the summer.But if you do,be prepared for tip currents.To get out of a dangerous current,don't panic,warns Tom Grill,a spokesman for the U.S.Lifesaving Association.Swim parallel to the beach until you're no longer being pulled out to sea,then swim diagonally (成对角线地) toward the shore.
BRING
Baby powder.Use a generous amount of baby powder to remove sand from your hands,feet or hair.The powder quickly absorbs moisture,allowing sand to fall off easily.
