Beach vacations are fun—the shining sun, the relaxing waves, and the beach wind blowing through your hair.

But there is a lot more to beach vacations than just picking a beach with sand and packing up the car. So you should plan and prepare it well.

Beach vacations take place mostly outside on the beach, so you may not be too relaxed during January beach vacations where it is too cold to swim or enjoy the beach.

Certain times of the year, beach vacations are filled with people, such as during the week of college spring break. During spring break, the beaches are full, there is too much traffic, and hotels are hard to come by. Unless you want to join the party, avoid the weeks of college spring breaks.

And if you want childfree beach vacations, avoid the summer months when children are out of school.

You will have the perfect beach vacations if you keep the time of year in mind when you are planning.

To avoid overcrowding, look for beach vacations in uncommon areas. Popular beach vacations are always overcrowded.

People with small children may want to avoid popular beach vacations as well. A vacation with small children is busy enough without the added stress of overcrowding.

In general, inland(内陆) beaches can fit nicely. Not everyone who loves beach vacations likes inland beaches. Hotels are usually cheaper at inland beaches, too.

The most popular beach vacations are in California, Florida, Long Island, and North Carolina.
