About this word search

Summer at the beach in the United States often means a Boardwalk, and some of the best known ones line the Atlantic coast. This list mixes boardwalk words with the essentials every family packs: Towel, Sunscreen and a Swimsuit.

Words can lie flat, stand upright or cut across at an angle, but none are reversed. Sunscreen, Boardwalk, Jellyfish and Surfboard, nine letters each, are the longest and make good starting points. Sand, Sea, Shell, Shovel, Swimming, Swimsuit, Sunscreen and Surfboard all begin with S, so it pays to look at each S from every side.

It fits easily in a beach bag. Take it out when the sun gets too strong and someone needs a break under the Parasol.
