Beach Movies

I have the privilege of being in Myrtle Beach for the entire week. I'm a very lucky girl and it got me brainstorming on the best beach movies. I haven't put them in any particular order, but here are the films that I come up with.

Beaches
Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey star in this great movie all about lifelong friendships and the strong bonds that can be formed.

Soul Surfer
A movie that follows the incredible true story of Bethany Hamilton. She was bit by a shark while surfing in the water and not only came back to the sport, but came back a champion. It's a tera jerker so make sure you have the tissues handy.

Mamma Mia
I couldn't make a list about beaches without including this movie. If you are an avid reader you know I rarely ever make lists without at least one Meryl Streep movie on them. This movie is nothing short of fantastic. I can't even begin to talk about it.

The Beach
I haven't seen this one. I know its bad to endorse a movie you haven't seen but after my mom told me about this movie I have to see it. It sounds a lot like Contagion. So check it out.

Blue Lagoon
The ever famous story of two kids trapped on a deserted island.

Nights in Rodanthe
So romantic, so sad with Diane Lane and Richard Gere, not to mention Viola Davis. It's based on a Nicholas Sparks novel and trust me when I say you don't want to miss this one.

Beach Blanket Bingo
It's Elvis, need I say more?

Jaws
I don't think this needs any explanation either. You should make a day of it and watch the trilogy.

Andre 
Andre the seal, one of my favorite movies as a kid. It's the best.
