It's not palm trees and neon signs in Florida; it's strip malls, highways, hot sun beating down on you.
I have many favorite vacation destinations, but my favorite destination is Maui.
When I come to Manly I just remember my childhood.
I'm in love with the city. You can impress an Australian with a city, but you can't impress them with a beach.
I've never had a cold Christmas, as I always spend it back home in Australia.
My mum lives near Holkham Bay in Norfolk, and with my dad by the coast in Suffolk, I spend quite a bit of time by the sea.
My mom used to take me down to the Jersey Shore when I was 7, 8, 9 years old. I can remember being down in that area - Belmar, Seaside Heights, Asbury Park and all those places that I went back and revisited.
As a young child, my family holidays were always in Rock, Cornwall, with my parents, older brother Kim and sister Nicola.
I'm not a natural ocean person. I married into a family of swimmers, and I've slowly been drawn into the sea.
What would be really difficult is to be sitting on a beach. There's vacations, and there's vegetations. I don't do well vegetating.
Summer — summer — summer! The soundless footsteps on the grass!
Turks and Caicos is one of my favorite places to go. I've been to some really cool places and it started out when I was young by wanting to go to different places.
Goa isn't just about tourism and happy faces.
Between planning family vacations and running away for novel-writing retreats, I've spent much of my adult life questing for the perfect beach escape, renting cottages all along the Florida Gulf and up and down the Atlantic Coast - as far north as Nags Head, as far south as Key West.
I love St. Ives and Fowey. I have childhood memories of the Headland Hotel, where 'The Witches' was filmed, standing on the Fistral Beach. There's something about packing a bikini and Wellington boots - and I'm away.
I love the beach; I grew up on the Baltic Sea. I love the beach. I love the water. I love surfing and swimming.
When I was a teenager, we used to go to North Carolina with my family, and we'd all pile into, like, a beach house. We'd rent, like, two or three next to each other, because I have a humungous family.
West Wittering in Chichester is perfect for a short break and if I've got longer, Devon and Cornwall are my favourites places in Britain.
I'm a California kid, so I love the beach.
I never liked going in the ocean.
During the first quarter of the last century, seaside resorts became the fashion, even in those countries of Northern Europe within the minds of whose people the sea had hitherto held the role of the devil, the cold and voracious hereditary foe of humanity.
When I was a kid, all our seaside holidays were spent on Canvey Island or in Clacton-on-Sea.
I like the beaches in Orange County the best. I think Orange County has great beaches. Everything from Dana Point to Newport to Laguna; all over the place.
Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain. I'm not much into health food, I am into Champagne.
I love the sea, and I never mind when it's rough.
