Worst beach you'd ever been to

Wow, talk about a random topic. Now, I was remembering things, and I remembered on one of the cruises I went on, their was this horrible beach we visited. It wasn't just a crappy beach, it was just plain wrong. This was a few years ago. I think it was in St. Martin or something.

First of all, you could hardly call this a beach. The sand was like a hill, or a slant, their was barely any sand, just a hill like sand thing that was right near the water and you couldn't swim in the water because their were all these rope things blocking it, and the sand was all messed up, their was dirt and seaweed all over the sand, it was a lot worse then I remember it, but you couldn't go swimming in the water and it was a tiny beach they couldn't even count as a beach.

Now I'm not picky. I'm very kind, considerate and generous. The crappy way the beach was wouldn't even hold as an issue or mentioning, if it wasn't horrible. Their was hardly any visitors. Their were hudnreds of salespeople all over the beach. Literally every second a salesperson would stop you and ask you to buy some of their crap. Now, if it was only every minute it would be okay, but I couldn't even enjoy what a I was trying to concentrate on doing because of these damn salespeople that would pester me every second. They all looked the same and their was an infinite amount. I could not do anything for a second, because the salespeople kept asking me to buy something.

Plus, it took awhile for them to give up. When you said no thank you, they didn't just walk away and stop. They pulled out all their scarves or whatever, showed you them, kept practically bullying you into buying them. They almost forced some people to buy their crap. They placed the scarves in your hand, and would ask for money. They would demand you to buy it. It was so annoying. They would not stop. Then their were those perverted restaurants that were on the beach which really wasn't a beach. Restaurants with signs like if you come in topless you get a free drink. How awful is that? It didn't stop there, oh no.

So we wanted to leave the beach, but my dad had the dumb idea that he wanted to return. So the dumb person who owns the beach or something suggests we leave two towels from the hotel on each of our lounge chairs and says he'll watch it. My dad leaves one. I didn't know about this, and if I did I would've said something. So my dad leaves a towel there. He goes back, and the towel is gone. The dumb person who owns the beach said something like oh well, maybe someone else on the cruise thought it was there's and took it. The dumbass probably sold it, that theiving idiot.

So, each towel was twenty dollars, if my dad left both towels, we would have owed forty dollars to the cruise people, but we only left one, so we had to pay the cruise 20$ for a towel. Oh yeah, it also cost money to go to that pathetic beach. I'm a very kind person. I'm a very happy person. However, there are some things that can really get me to rant.

Okay, wow. While I love beaches and think they are very beautiful, I belive I will make sure to avoid this one.

By the way, one thing you could try doing if you ever end up on another beach like that is when you get to the salespeople, do not look at any of them. They will notice this and think that just because you glanced at them that you are interested in what they have to sell. So do not look any of them in the face. If one does start pestering you, look them dead in the eyes and politely say no thank you. If you do this a couple of times and they don't leave you alone, walk away. If they follow you, threaten to call the police and report them for harrasment. Use this as a last resort, though. Don't get hostile with total strangers unless you absolutely have to. And by all means, don't ever trust a stange guy to watch your stuff ever again. That guy himself may have taken the towel.
