Oh I do like to be beside the seaside - and not spend any money at all

Being 23, it can be hard to find things to do without spending money. Boredom can set in easily and I'm part of a generation where I expect everything to happen right now.
My partner and I have a week off work and are trying to make sure we do something each day without spending heaps of cash ... because we don't have heaps of cash.
We decided to take a trip to the Beach. We live in leafy Surrey but there are plenty of beaches within driving distance that we can get to. We've been having such beautiful weather we thought why not go for a paddle and spend some time sunning ourselves. We have to make the most of the British Summer!
We packed a picnic, just bits and pieces from the fridge, and off we went. We live by Gatwick so everything is pretty accessible to us.
We drove down to West Sussex to Shoreham Beach and it was absolutely stunning.
Even though it was a blazing hot day the beach wasn't crowded at all. It was fantastic. The sea was a beautiful shimmering blue and it really was just the most perfect place to spend a relaxing afternoon together.
I think the most beautiful thing about this beach is that it hasn't been commercialised (perhaps that's why it was so quiet?). There wasn't a shop or vendor to be seen, just a row of houses with a view to die for. I think this would be a great place for couples with children as there is no temptation to spend money. The only money we spent went on petrol! Well worth it.
Peace & Love
