The idea of a beach vacation is to lose your cares in the waves, on the water or settled blissfully atop sun-warmed sand. But you don’t want to lose your savings in the process. Though beachgoing itself is usually free, enjoying access means finding accommodations and activities within your means. Whether you like your waves salty or fresh, the following beach towns offer free and affordable variations on the perks of vacationing by the water.

According to AARP’s latest travel trends survey, cost remains a barrier for travelers 50-plus. It’s key to find ways to stretch your budget. Lodging in each town varies, depending on when you go and how long you stay, but prices range from $100 to $400 a night.

I do miss going to the beach, but the "sharks" keep me away.

I may be wrong, but it seems of late there are MORE shark attacks.  😱

Take care,
