Forests are full,Beaches are empty

I lived in Florida for 20+ years. The beach is wildly overrated. Unless you surf or dive (and FL sucks for surfing), there's literally nothing to do except walk and sit on sand. Though I will say this: if you're allowed to have a bonfire on the beach at night, it becomes infinitely more fun. But that's pretty much banned in FL.

So yeah, I will opt for the forest almost every time.

I’ve never been much of a beach person, although my main issue is the heat, so that should be fine this time of year.

But the forest sounds nicer to me, the flowers are just coming out right now and there are many birds ! All the greenery is also very relaxing, plus there’s a chance to see some more wildlife (perhaps a deer ? Thankfully, wasting disease hasn’t reached the local population !)

Hike through a forest to reach the beach for chilling.

Fuck I miss Vancouver Island...

I can walk out any door and be in the forest, so overall I'd say forest....but if you're teleporting me there and back for thr day, I'd pick a bit of beach.
