30+ People Confess The Most Traumatizing Thing To Ever Happen To Them At The Beach

10.

My parents had wanted to have a date night while we were on vacation with my grandparents. We( my two younger sisters and I) were fine with it and our Granny took us golf cart riding on the shore. It was all good, we stopped so my sisters and I could walk for a minute. We walked to the water to stand where the water would hit our bare feet. The sun was setting, we were having the time of our lives and it was so beautiful. Well, we turn around to go back to the golf cart and we see our Granny’s pants and underwear hanging on the armrest. Then we see her, our Grandmother who is about 80 something squatting with her pants completely off PISSING on the beach. We saw everything and were traumatized.

On the beach, I had a basket if cheese fries with the fake, delicious, gooey cheese. While getting undressed, I somehow managed to dip my back into the cheese and not notice.
Minutes later, seagulls were EVERYWHERE. I threw away the fries because it was so intense. My friend and I were like “WTF?! WTF?!”
Finally, he noticed the cheese stuck to my back. I look up at the boardwalk. There are a ton of people engulfed in laughter who noticed the cheese waaaay before we did, and just watched the whole thing unfold. When I noticed them, the crowd erupted in claps.

I was walking along the shore in Cancun, trying to catch up to my sister, when my foot suddenly got caught in a large hole as i was walking. But, the hole had a strange, squishy feeling… I looked down, and there was an octopus in the hole! I screamed and ran away. I haven’t eaten octopus since.

I was six years old and a bird snatched my fucking cookie right from my hand with its sharp ass beak.
I cried for two weeks.

I went to the beach with a very new boyfriend. The beach was a long hike down a cliff and then a bit of a walk. Very secluded. No lifeguards. No bathrooms. After we got settled in I felt the dreaded bubble guts. I had very few options that didn’t involve having diarrhea in front of my new BF. Thankfully no one was in the water so I said I was going for a quick dip to cool off. Without waiting for a response I sprinted into the water, whipped off my bikini bottoms and let it rip. After using a few waves to strategically bidet my butt clean I put back on my bottoms and return to shore. Bf has no idea!! This was ten years ago and we’re married now and he has still never knowingly seen me poop. A few years into our relationship I finally told him the story which he finds hilarious and frequently asks me to retell how on one of our first dates I shit in the ocean.

I went to the beach with a friend in high school, and we saw two reeeeeally cute boys a few spaces away from us. We did that thing where we would just kind of stare at them until they looked at us, then we would turn away and giggle. This went on for a little while and then my friend and I went into the water, which was about waist-high. A few minutes later, still in the water, I made eye contact with one of the cuties and he started WALKING TOWARD US LOOKING RIGHT AT ME. That was when I projectile vomited right into the water and ran away. I’m not sure if it was sun poisoning, the water hitting my stomach over and over, plain old nerves or a combination of the three, but that was the first and the last time I’ve ever tried to flirt at the beach!

When I was in high school I went on vacation with my boyfriend at the time’s family to South Carolina. After dinner one night my stomach felt a little weird, but I just ignored it. So the next day we were maybe a couple miles down the beach from the house we were renting when all of the sudden I felt a stomach cramp, I immediately took off down the beach (I don’t remember what I told them I needed to do) and as I was speed walking, I ended up having diarrhea and it just seeped right out of my swim suit and ran down my leg in front of EVERYONE!

When I was a kid we would go to a local beach on Lake Ontario. It was a great location – usually pretty clean, lots of sand, not too crowded, and a couple of life guards almost always on duty. So one day my fam and I were swimming and all of a sudden we hear some screaming. Then more screaming. Then vomiting. It wasn’t long before we figured out why – as we were swimming hundreds of fish heads started coming in with the tide. While it was mostly the heads, there were also other various fish parts and just general carnage floating in to the swimming area being brought into the swimming area by the waves. I never found out what exactly caused it, but I’m thinking some guy was using the fish parts as bait (?) and dumped them out in the middle of the lake somewhere. It was pretty disgusting.

I was in Hawaii on a cruise and had very limited time to actually enjoy the beach. One stop was a public beach with a really beautiful sandy beach. Very soft sand to be exact. I went splashing in the water and was having a great time but trying to get out was very hard. I kept sinking into sand on the shore while waves came in and knocked me down. Eventually I was completely sideways, face getting splashed by water while every time I tried to get my bearings the sand would swallow up my feet or hands. I kept rolling and flaying around. I felt like a beached whale, and of course people are watching but no one is helping, not even my husband. I finally figured out to go further into the ocean, right myself and run fast out of the water. After a public hoseing off it still took an hour long shower in the cruise ship bathroom to get the sand out of my crevices.

Both of these happened the summer I was 12. One, we were on a beach day trip, I start noticing spots on my arms. Get more as the day goes on. Finally point them out to my mom, turns out I was coming down with chicken pox. We left immediately for home. A month later, we’re at a water park, I go on the biggest slide for the first time(I was finally big enough), my suit practically goes up inside me. Later as we change to head home I notice some discoloration in the suit bottom. Thought it was just because of what happened with the big slide. Nope, by the time we got home I realized I had gotten my period for the first time ever. Thankfully I was wearing dark shorts and was sitting on a beach towel in the car.
