Warm Up Your Winter With This Awesome Beach Playlist

Brrr!

What's the weather like where you're sitting? Down here in Sunset Beach, North Carolina, it's our coldest time of the year. January and February average daily lows around 36ยฐ (with highs near 60ยฐ). That being said, we are still able to look out at the ocean and pretend it's a warm summer day, especially when we crank up some happy, beach-ready music! 

Today we will share some songs that would be perfect on any family-friendly beach day playlist.

Or, crank it up anytime you want to go on a virtual vacation, even from your desk at work. Open up your favorite music app or website (Apple Music, Spotify, Pandora) and start adding songs that make you feel happy and warm. 

Then, click here to book an awesome beach vacation!

Keep creating and adding! 

We bet you have found a few songs you forgot even existed. Perhaps you remember one from a scene of a movie, or you remember one playing at the ice cream shop last time you were on vacation. 

Keep those memories going by adding more songs (and memories) to your playlist. You will love listening to it when you're down at work, or play it on your way to Sunset Beach this year. 

Music can influence your mood. No matter what type of music you prefer, it activates a region of your brain that can actually affect your emotions. Read more about this fascinating phenomenon here
