Description
The Beach Getaway is the best of everything Ferry Beach has to offer. Why let the kids have all the fun? The Ferry Beach theme for 2022 is "Resilience" and we’re looking forward to take this time to spring back from the difficulties of the past couple of years with both fun and mindfulness. We will be celebrating our return with line dancing, yoga, meditation, a Bocce tournament, bum volleyball, and drumming. For those of us feeling creative, we’ll be making bookmarks and holiday beach-themed ornaments. Our activities are geared for adults of all ages and abilities. The pace is yours, take it all in or simply enjoy the beach and rocking chairs that look out over the ocean. If you are not into agenda and timelines, you are welcome to opt out of any activities and take time to walk, hang out on the beach, create on your own, or visit with friends.
The Getaway is a great experience for single folks, adult children and their parents, friends, couples, siblings or small adult groups.
