Stretched out on the warm sand of Myrtle Beach, it’s easy to unwind. During a recent trip to there, I watched a little boy launching a kite nearby, his little legs running as fast as they can. On the shore, my family shrieked with laughter as they tossed a Frisbee in the waves. Overhead, the sky was a clear bright blue. It was the perfect day for making family memories.

For many, vacation means spending time at the beach, with beach towns ranking among America’s top vacation destinations. A recent survey by Vacasa found that 57 percent of Americans are planning a beach vacation this year.
