Things to do at beach in Kompong Saom

1. look for shells: my personal favorite! Every beach is different and even the same beach can be different at different times of the year.  They say the best time to find sharks teeth or shells is when the hide tide is going out and leaving the shells behind. 

2. lay in the sun : not recommended if you are watching little kids all by yourself. Keep your eyes on those little ones!  Take a friend with you and you can take turns laying and watching the kids.

3. design an obstacle course: use a shell to draw a path with stations that require the runner to stop and stand on one foot with eyes closed or collect 3 shells or hop or sing happy birthday before they continue on the course.  This is fun to participate in, watch, and to entertain the people around you too.

4. bring a ball : this is a favorite for my husband and my son.  be careful if you miss the ball will go forever!  Maybe that’s why my husband stands on the beach and my son stands in the water.

5. feed the birds : I would suggest that you wait until you are leaving or the birds will become your shadows.  It’s crazy fun to through the food straight up and the birds will come from nowhere.

6. build a sand castle : It doesn’t take a lot of tools but you for sure need a shovel and at least a bucket or two.  don’t forget to include a moat.

7. bury a sibling in the sand : now’s your chance be careful not to bury the head at all and not too close to the water where the waves could come up.

If you’re looking for a beach vacation spot for your family, Myrtle Beach Resorts for kids may be the perfect place.  It’s located in the Grand Strand which is know as America’s “Number One Family Beach.”  check it out.

8. surf, body surf, buggy board : buggy boarding is my son’s favorite and is entertained for hours.

9. collect critters : this is my daughter’s favorite.  We have made temporary homes in the sand for crabs, some critter is those butterfly shells, fish, baby sharks, minnows, star fish, and jelly fish.

10. read a book : my husband’s favorite although the kids rarely let him sit long enough to read.

11. take a walk : you can’t beat the fresh air at the beach and a nice walk is perfect any time of the day but at sunset or sunrise it’s pretty amazing.

12. run or ride a bike : for a little bit more activity a nice run on the beach or a bike run is great.
