How to throw a beach party
A beach party is a great way to have fun. In this article, you’ll find helpful tips on how to throw a beach party.
Steps 1
Location. Which beach will you choose? Visit all of your local beaches and choose the best option. The ideal beach should be close enough, the sand should be free of sticks and driftwood (unless you plan to build a fire), and there should definitely be clear water. Go to the beach you like and make all the arrangements. Remember, you may need to get a permit if you’re planning a big party.
