Having sex on the beach

In the movies, when a couple has sex on the beach, it's always spontaneous, romantic, almost magical. But let's be real, if you try to do that, you'll likely end up with sand where it's not supposed to be—and not much else. That doesn't mean you can't have beach sex, it just means you need to prepare before you take the plunge. She even suggests running through a few "what if" scenarios—like "What if it starts raining? That might sound like work the opposite of what sex is supposed to be , but think of it like planning a mini-vacation. You're giving yourself and your sexual partner something to look forward to, which can only help up the ante when the moment finally comes.

We explain how to do beach sex right. Turns out getting down and dirty in the dunes takes some planning. As summer takes hold, temperatures soar and holiday romances suddenly seem a totally sensible thing to do rather than a doomed expedition into the world of gonorrhoea, sex on the beach is back on the menu. I mean, it has to be amazing. They named a cocktail after it, right? If the urge to get down and dirty in the dunes is too forceful to ignore, how do you go about it? Is it really as good as it looks in the movies?

Mug shots via Bradenton Beach Police. Jose Caballero and Elissa Alvarez are now convicted public sex-havers. On Monday, year-old Caballero and year-old Alvarez were found guilty of lewd and lascivious behavior for some over-the-top grinding that turned into fucking on July 20 of last year in Bradenton Beach, Florida. The question isn't whether they're going to have the book thrown at them, but how hard. A three-year-old girl watched the couple, according to witnesses.

So, I gotta say: sex on the beach is way overrated. I mean, I get it. The beach is super romantic. Waves crashing, moon rising, ocean or lake stretching out into what looks like infinity… Sigh. While you might be picturing gentle rolling around on soft sand as the moon peeks over the dunes, the reality is more like sandy crevices and surprise crab attacks.
