Paper 3 Narrative/Description
Thousands of high school students come together at Sunken Meadow Beach each year for our student cut day. The smell of water, the taste of the delicious food, and the view of the beautiful woman walking around as the sun reflects off of their skin all come together to make for a rememberable moment.Going to the beach was our break from school and to help us from relax from our schoolwork. Visiting Sunken Meadow was such an vibrant exprience for me as well as my other classmates. It was like we all gather in one spot just to get away from our problems and have a good time. The crisp air, good vibes, and the taste of great barbercue, there is no place like the beach, the beach was like our stress reliever also a place where we can go and just have a great time together.

I look into the cloudless, baby blue sky and see the perfection of life; in the distance, rumbling blue waves crashing into each other with such force as that of two sumo wrestlers pounding each other. The smell of the crisp wavy water gives me chills the second I hit the bridge on the way to the beach. Driving to the beach isnt the best feeling but once you past the first part of the bridge, the smell of blue salty water & the dry sand hits your nose. I smell the somewhat salty raw fish in the air. The smell of fresh grilled hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken even corn was in the air. Smells of rich sand mixed with the water had a funky ora as your walking along the shore side. I will never forget those smells at Sunken Meadow Beach. My mind will always instantly be reminded of Sunken Meadow when I smell saltwater, hamburgers, abeautiful women around, smell of the nasty sand, even the fell of the mist as the waves crash onto shore. Those scents was one of many reasons why Sunken Meadow was a memorable
As I stood with my peachy pink toes in the gritty sand, I watched as the salty water rushed over my feet. The white waves covered my feet completely and I let them submerge deeper into the wet sand. Looking out toward the horizon, my chest rose as humid air filled my lungs to spread warmth throughout the rest of my body. Finally letting my thoughts come to a slow stop; I relaxed for the first time in a long time. “Don’t wait up for me!” My grandpa yelled from the top of overpass. We had established a tradition of body surfing where he had always held the number one spot as the winner, no matter who actually won the race. I dove head first into the water and headed out toward the sand bank to catch some waves. Tossing my clumpy hair over my shoulder, I continued to dig my toes deeper into the snug sand. Pieces of grains settled between my feet to complete my feeling of paradise.
We eventually make it to the beach and it was beautiful out! The first step onto the sand burns our feet and we all race to the water. The wind floats through our hair and the water splashes on our feet. Everybody sets up their chairs and plops down to just relax and look at the stunning ocean, when it starts raining cats and dogs.
As I walk towards the ocean with the sand warm beneath my feet, the waves lap at my ankles, seeming as if they want to pull me out to sea. The sun rises over the horizon, reflecting off the waves and shimmering like gold. The salt air smells tangy as it stings my nose with the smell I crave while I am away from the ocean. The Outer Banks in North Carolina has been my favorite place to go from my first memories. I look forward to going there every summer because there at the ocean I feel at home. It is a place where I can forget every stress in my life and be totally at peace. It is a place where my family can spend time together, not like at home where we all have activities and places to be. The Outer Banks is not a beach where the ocean is forgotten; there is no partying and no boardwalks, nothing but nature to fill your days there. The beach is not crowded to the point where it is hard to even walk to the beach ,and looking for shells is not even an option. This beach is a very peaceful and surreal place. The noises of people do not overwhelm you at this beach; all you can hear are the sea gulls and the waves.
The sand was hot but felt very good. It was very hard to walk in the sand on my sandals,so I have to remove them. There were sea shells in the sand and I even stepping on a few which brought me tremendous pain. While walking the strip you could see how backed
The beach is one of the most popular vacation spots. At the beach, some of the most popular activities are reading and playing in the ocean. People enjoy reading on the beach because of the calmness and warmth. The atmosphere is usually calming because of the waves. People find the waves to be relaxing and the sound of the waves enables them to be more focused.
Inside all the restaurants were all sandy like the grown was and it was like kinda like a open place it waset closed off at all and we had aot of fun just seeing that alone. My favorite place to eat there was called Roys beach house it was so good. The scheduling part was easy for us because it was always warm and it stayed light till 10oclock at night and so we could do more fun things in the day. There were so many activites to do there. We had to do some kid friendly stuff since me and my sister were only 8 and 9 years old we seen so many water shows on the beach we went parasailing, tubing, building sand castles on the beach, My family loved to just sit back on the beach and watch the sunset since are resort was right up the way.
The trees swaying with the wind as if they were dancing. The sandy beach stretching far and wide across the vast lake. The little cabins sitting stiffly on the shore. The many little islands are tolerating the water around them. The smell of decaying fish stinging my nose.
Ever since Sunset Beach has been officially opened to the public, there has been a drastic increase of tourists present. Television programs concluded that at least a thousand people visit the beach everyday. Reasons for their stay are that they feel comfortable with the environment that surrounds the beach front, people who are at the beach are joyous and numerous activities to enjoy, and the fresh scent of the sparkly waters, make the visitors feel calm and pleasurable. So I decided to take a trip there.
The water was just as I had hoped: perfectly clear and warmer than I imagined. The sand was almost as white as paper. Being on that beach was a serene and cathartic experience. Even though we were in our room for a minimal time, I can still remember it today.
Right when I got there I saw that the beach was not that crowded, there could be a couple reasons for this, it was weekdays so most people might have been at work and it had been pretty gloomy. The few people that were in the water were mainly surfing and wearing full head to toe wetsuits because the water is very cold. Other than the surfers, there was a couple tourists that had just excitedly jumped into the freezing water in just a bathing suit possibly because they had never been in the ocean before. It is really interesting to watch people who are not from here take in, and experience the beach in a way the local people normally do not. Sitting on the sand were the families in full clothes. Although this was a little peculiar I did understand where there
A new day has begun. Slowly ascending into the cold dark sky, the sun glows vibrantly with delight. The passionate colours fill the sky with warmth like the pink grapefruits, zesty lemons, citrus oranges and cherry red. The sea so subtle sparkles preciously as it strolls up against the shore. The crystal water that stretch out far into the horizon gets darker and deeper but stays very calm.
The beach is Miami’s biggest attraction. People come from all over the world to hear our seagulls cawing, smell the sea- salt filled air, and walk through the warm white sand. When other cities are zero below freezing, we are wearing bathing suits and riding jet skis. The best part of the beach is when the sun is setting and you see the sky turning different colors. Its amazing to set up a bonfire with a group of friends, listen to music, and just enjoy the laid back Miami
My feet sunk in the sand endlessly and I felt useless as I tried to catch up to them. The good part was that there was no burning sensation since the autumn winds were starting to settle. It was easy to deal with the sand that way. When I looked at the water, however, that was a different story. My brother and older sister had no hesitation in running to play in the consistent waves, but I just could not do it.
Have you ever visited a place so beautiful and serene that you couldn’t imagine a more stunning place? For me, it is the shimmering and flowing waters of the ocean. The way that the deep blue waters meet the gritty beige sand leaves me in such awe. The water is like a soft blanket, comforting and inviting. The unique wildlife and vegetation that exists on the beach is something I’ve never seen anywhere else. There is no place more beautiful and thrilling than the beach.
The salty sunrises that go along with Florida mornings are just a small part of the reason why I adore visiting this state so much. Waking up to the sun splashing on my face, I feel warm and stress-free throughout my entire body. When I open my eyes, I see that my previously white, cotton sheets are now tinted scarlet from the glare of the burning sun. I stretch out my sleepy bones and take in the scent of the ocean breeze that has slowly encompassed my space. I gradually get out of bed and walk a straight path to the patio of my hotel room. Since I am on the fifth floor, I get to see the complete ocean view. Looking out at the ocean puts me at ease and makes me want to live here. The ocean rolls onto the sand as if it was gently kissing the Earth and it rolls in deeply, smoothly. It is a bond between two aspects of nature that leaves me breathless with every tide.
