I like the pool because of my children. I don't really going to crowded places with my children especially when there is water involved.

I prefer the beach if it is on a clear ocean. Nothing better than snorkeling and watching the fish.

I like both pool and the beach, but pool is better because it is less messy.

I'm more a pool person.  I'm generally not a fan of swimming, but oceans/lakes/ponds - not my thing.  Also don't like all the sand that gets everywhere.  But when it's cold outside, I don't mind sitting on the beach on occasion to relax.

I prefer the pool for general swimming. I am more open to the beach if I'm able to see things underwater. The beaches near me go deep quickly and unless I'm scuba diving, I won't be able to see much.

Neither. I would rather be inside playing video games.

I like the pool. I have a six year old and I usually take a small group of kids swimming. It is easier to watch them all at a pool rather than the beach.

I like both, but the beach is hard to get the perfect conditions.  Too many waves, too much seaweed or when the jellyfish are out all make just going to a pool much simpler.

I absolutely prefer the beach. It's cleaner and more tranquil. It's not as readily available,  but that's ok by me, lol.

For summing definitely the pool but for relaxing the beach
Title: Re: do you prefer the beach or the pool
Post by: michele2042 on February 28, 2015, 08:15:33 am
Wouldn't complain about either.   But favor the beach, umbrella, sounds of the waves, smell of the salt water and sipping a beverage.   Oh how I long for summertime.

I like the beach to look at the water but I dont like being there in the blazing sun and I for sure am not going into the water as I am a shark-o-phobic.  I love a pool especially if I could have one at my house - not crazy about a public pool but I'll take what I can get lol.

The beach!!! I love pools, too, but if I think about the cleanliness of the water it's a bit weird.

Post by: patti4me on February 28, 2015, 11:55:25 am
We don't have a beach very close to us but we do have a few lakes around the area.  After we had our first child we had a pool put in because I didn't think the lake water was very good for anyone but especially not a child.  I would love to spend some time on a beach though.

i love the pool but i like the beach except for when it is crowded and people kick the sand all over you with the pool you don't have that and it is not crowed

I just love the beach and everything about it, so I prefer the beach.  If I have to swim in a pool, I prefer a salt water pool.  My sister's got one of them and it's awesome.

   The pool is safer because you usually have life guards.

I don't like crowed places, so pool will be good choice for me.

I'd rather go to a pool. Don't like the salt or the sand.

The beach create a calmness from the wind and I prefer the beach instead of the pool.

Post by: lbeery on February 28, 2015, 08:51:41 pm
I think a beach could become my favorite if I lived right on the beach and got used to it.  I grew up on the west coast and have always loved the ocean but it wasn't a swimming thing.  I love going to the pool if it is outdoors and not too crowded. I really wish I had one of my own....if it came with a pool boy.

Post by: nmbrown863 on February 28, 2015, 09:02:46 pm
My grandparents had a huge in ground pool growing up so I was always in it. Probably why I prefer the beach just because I have only been a few times.
Title: Re: do you prefer the beach or the pool
Post by: jmc1982 on March 01, 2015, 04:48:13 pm
Either one is fine for me.  I would rather go to the pool since the beach at times may be overcrowded

I prefer both the pool and beach, but I rather go to the beach because it is more nicer, calm, and I like the waves.

I like the pool all because it doesn't have sand.

I prefer the pool over the beach. Haven't been to either in a while, maybe I try a pool this summer.

I love the beach, especially when there are small to medium sized waves.  The beaches in the Caribbean and Hawaii are often very clear and soft.

I prefer the beach because I love playing in the sand and the waves rolling in and out on the shore.

Post by: Penwoir on March 02, 2015, 07:58:56 am
I prefer the beach, not just for the sand but also for the waves, rock pools, seagulls and trashy food! I do appreciate the pool for the treated water (debatable whether it is cleaner than the sea though!) and clean bathrooms, so much more civilized. If I had to chose though, it would be the beach for sure.

It is nice to have a pool. Private ones are the best. No crowds. Just you and the serenity of the calming water on a HOT day. No sand to wash off at a pool. But you can't forget about the view of the beach. It is breath-taking. Especially at sunrise or sunset. I would prefer the beach for that reason. Plus, the skinny people in their skimpy attire. Always nice to enjoy that view. BMaston12

I remember seeing a shark at the beach when I was about 14, so I love the beach but I don't really get in the water.  And since my health issues I will not be getting into a pool with all that chlorine, but i do love laying out by the pool.

I take the pool if I have to, but the beach is my family favorite place, and when I go back "home" to my country we go to the river and love it.

Post by: countrygirl12 on March 04, 2015, 07:45:59 am
I don't do either.  I don't want to parade around practically naked in front of other people.  I went to the beach when I was a teenager once.  Have not been to a public pool since a very young age.  If I were going to do one I would prefer a backyard pool.   Besides that you never know when people are taking your picture or videoing you to put it on the internet to make fun of you.

I admit I have laughed at some of the "people of walmart" pictures but I got to thinking about it and I refuse to even look at them.   It is wrong to take pictures of strangers and put them on the internet and laugh at them.

I like both, although it is hard for me to walk in the sand since I have arthritis in my knees.  For me, the pool is a better option.

I like to beach more than i go a pool.  If I could I would live on the beach.  But my home is here in middle Tennessee and all my family is here.  I hope to go back to fla. sometime this year but will see if I am able to travel.  Hope everyone has a goodday and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)

No fav pool. All beaches are great. But I have a certain feeling about Destin and the Emerald Coast of Florida. White sand and beautiful aqua water. I will never forget! BMaston12

Pool.  I love the beach and I have to go a couple times each summer.  It is calming and natural and inspiring.  But is is also sandy as all get out and sticky and often crowded!!  I like the pool best for regular visits because its clean and refreshing.

the beach with the sun and sand and the ocean.  not a pool fan at all.  went and took my kids to the pool when they were little or to the local beach,,,  but give me the ocean when ever I can get there
