10 Ways to Flirt on the Beach This Summer

Summer is the ultimate season to kick back by the water and unplug, so we’ve put together a few insider tips to help you flirt like a pro on the beach or wherever your getaway takes you.

10 ways to up your flirting game:

1. Ditch the heavy-handed moves and stay far away from being pushy. Keep things bright, keep smiling, and stand out from the crowd naturally.
2. Looks naturally carry more weight when the weather heats up and wardrobes shrink. Make grooming a priority, and maybe squeeze in a quick workout routine or tighten up your diet before packing your bags.
3. Get moving along the shoreline instead of gluing yourself to your towel all day—strolling around is honestly your best shot at sparking a genuine connection.
4. Dive headfirst into beach activities. Joining a beach volleyball match, for instance, is an effortless icebreaker.
5. Roll with a mixed-gender crew if you can. It’s way smoother to mingle and fold yourself into a new circle when you’ve got guy or girl friends by your side.
6. Ask your beach neighbors for a small favor to get the conversation flowing. Asking someone to watch your spot works wonders—just do everyone a favor and skip the cheesy sunscreen cliché.
7. Skip the booze. Out in the blazing heat, it’s a surefire recipe for making a fool of yourself.
8. If you actually know your way around a guitar, bring it along—it’s an absolute secret weapon for seaside charm.
9. Bring the humor. When people are on vacation, what they crave most is pure relaxation, and nothing beats sharing a solid laugh together.
10. Take things at an easy pace before making any big moves. Skip the rush, hang out for a few afternoons in the sun, and *then* think about planning a night out.
