During those cool fall and winter days, nothing is as inviting as a Carolina blue sky filled with sun shining down on you. In fact, the sun is an important source of vitamin D. Vitamin D may seem a little boring but it is vital for maintaining good health, most importantly to your mental health, but it also helps maintain bonedensity and fights off those pesky winter colds. A little bit of extra vitamin D during the winter months has, according to studies, been shown to combat things like depression, anxiety, and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). A day on Ocean Isle Beach is the perfect way to get that little extra boost of Vitamin D in your life. Looking for some great ways to spend some time on the beach in the sun.

Unplug

It is projected the average person will spend 5 years of their life on different social media platforms. 5 years! It is safe to say we are plugged in more than we might like to admit, add in the holiday’s hustle and bustle, online shopping, the constant bombardment of holiday ads, and the busy demands of work, email etc… well you get the picture. It is time to unplug for a bit and relax. Take some time this holiday and unplug from it all. Leave the cell phone safely plugged in at your Ocean Isle Beach rental and get ready for a day free of buzzes, bings, dings, and chirps. Forget about your email, text messages, Instagram, SnapChat, and Facebook. Now is the time to absorb the beauty of Ocean Isle Beach, to focus on your friends, and loved ones. Grab a great book you have been wanting to read forever but never seem to get around to finishing. Unplugging even if just for a few hours is great for your health, and most importantly a wonderful way to stay focused on what is important during your holiday vacation, the people in your life.

We haven’t done a study but we’re willing to bet 3 out of 3 Ocean Isle Beach vacationers sleep like babies each night. The soft crashing of those Atlantic rollers is sure to lull you into dreamland.

Sand and SurfSand

Sand, that simple ever-present substance on the beach is more than just fun to play in, it is also great for your skin, with its exfoliating properties it rejuvenates and cleanses your skin. No need to go to a fancy spa, just relax on the beach wiggle those toes in the sand, or take a long walk along the water taking in the beautiful Ocean Isle Beach views. Don’t forget the healing qualities of the Ocean. For centuries it was believed the ocean had healing properties now years later backed by scientific research it has been shown that this is in fact true. The mineral-rich ocean waters are great for your skin. Lucky for you we have both right here on Ocean Isle Beach and we don’t want to brag, but we have some of the best beaches on the east coast.
