This isnt the beach I go to, but I took this pic the other day and I like it so I'm posting it here. I normally go to Rat Beach in LA county. Yes I swim past the break and float. I swim til I get tired and feel like I burned enough calories to offset the michelob ultras I'm gonna drink on the sand.
I have one of those beach chairs that has backpack straps on it. I put my towel, sunscreen, small soft cooler, headphones, and water bottle in there. My soft cooler has a side pocket where I put my phone and THC vape pen. Then I hike it down the hill, walk past the first lifeguard tower and try to find a sparsely populated spot (not hard cause most people are too fat/lazy to make it this far). Then I set up my chair, apply sunscreen, and go straight in the water. I do my ocean thing and then I go back to my chair, crack open a beer, hit my vape, and relax so some good tunes. Then I usually walk down to the Torrance end and back while eye hustling scantily clad females. Then it's beer number 2 and more relaxing. After the second beer I usually have to piss, so it's back in the water, but I usually dont go past the break, just waste level to piss and then I'll duck dive under a wave so my hair gets wet and it isnt obvious I just went in to piss. I like to stay late and enjoy the sunset if I can. Then I pack up my shit and hoof it up the hill. Sometimes I'll see a mom with her kids and she'll be struggling to carry all the crap they brought, so I always ask if I can help carry shit, i tell them "I like being a pack mule." Sometimes they accept my offer and say thank you and it makes me feel good about myself. Then I drive home.
This is the song I always listen to while I'm driving there:
