There are places in this world - I know it's hard to believe - where you actually can drink on the beach without getting your balls busted...
COCOA BEACH, FLORIDA
Alcohol is allowed here, that is in anything but a glass container, and the beach patrol is quite strict on other policy. It bans dogs, camping, fires, climbing the dunes, digging large holes, feeding the birds, and harassing sea turtles. If you can’t follow rules when yer hammered, then this may not be your spot. Otherwise, it's a great beach and worth the visit.

HAULOVER BEACH, MIAMI, FLORIDA
It's 'clothing optional' and you know what that means - a buncha old fat guys running around in G-strings, but hey - whatever floats yer boat, Skippy.
...
PANAMA CITY BEACH, FLORIDA
I've been here - it is kinda nice but parking's a bitch. It is true that alcohol was banned on Panama City Beach this year, but it was only for the month of March to avoid wild spring breakers abusing the beach. During the remaining months of the year, persons 21 or older are free to consume boozy beverages as long as they aren’t in glass containers. But, because of the beach’s notoriety, its beach patrol makes sure consumers of alcohol are being responsible, and they will intervene if they think any behavior is out of hand.

PLAYA LINDA BEACH, FLORIDA
Alcohol is allowed, but like most beaches glass containers are prohibited. Playa linda is Spanish for “beautiful beach,” which is hard to argue based on the picture. According to the locals it is also a great location for surfing.
...
CUMBERLAND ISLAND, GEORGIA
Cumberland Island constitutes the westernmost point of shoreline on the Atlantic Ocean in the United States. The horses that roam the island are unmanaged feral horses and should be treated with caution, considering they’re wild animals. Alcohol is allowed on the beach, but it must be 'consumed responsibly'.
...
TYBEE ISLAND, GEORGIA
Beer kegs, glass bottles and other breakable containers are a no-go, but everything else is permitted to relax and party with. This is no surprise however, since the beach is located just outside of Savannah, where it is legal to drink in the streets.

NATIONAL LAKESHORE, INDIANA
Central Beach is the more well known beach to consume alcohol at in Indiana, however it is unfortunately closed until further notice due to erosion. But, alcohol is allowed along the stretch of beach from Kemil to Mount Baldy. So, if you live in or near Indiana, or are just traveling by, and plan to get some sun in the sands along Lake Michigan, you can bring some booze with you, as long as there’s no glass involved, as per usual.
...
ASSATEAGUE ISLAND, MARYLAND
The slim island is so long (37 miles) that it actually stretches between two states, Maryland and Virginia. Only the northern two-thirds (the Maryland portion) allow alcohol consumption. Fun fact: wild horses and ponies are native to the island and can be spotted daily around sunrise and sunset. As you can see from the pic, they easily coexist with beach goers.
...
CAPE COD NATIONAL SEASHORE, MASSACHUSETTS
I'll admit - this one surprised me. In the 400 miles of Massachusetts shoreline, drinking is only permitted on beaches that lie in the Cape Cod National Seashore (the easternmost section of Massachusetts), so take your pick out of any one of its beaches to post-up and enjoy yourself. The specific beach featured in this picture is Sandy Neck Beach.
...
FIRE ISLAND, NEW YORK
Fire Island used to be a paradise for consuming alcohol on the beach, but things have changed a bit. Recently the policy has changed for some parts of this beach haven. The Town of Islip, Brookhaven, and the Villages of Ocean Beach and Saltaire prohibit the possession of open containers or the consumption of alcoholic beverages in places open to the general public, except where licensed or specially permitted. These new regulation have been put in place to curb beach littering and help our environment. Everywhere else in Fire Island, however, it is still legal to drink whatever alcoholic beverage you please.
...
OUTER BANKS, NORTH CAROLINA
The Outer Banks has its fair share of attractions for vacationers, including the Wright Brothers Memorial, lighthouses, an aquarium, and enough shopping and dining to keep any family entertained for a week-long vacation. But the biggest attraction that draws seasoned Outer Banks vacationers back every year are the miles and miles of pristine beaches and the alcohol allowed on them. Just no glass! Also, it’s quite common to see kite surfers in action during the nicer parts of the years.
There are a lot more beaches all around the country you can drink on. Go find one for yourself and have fun. Have one for me while yer at it.

What is it with the German and English tourists that come to Fla for fun and sun that makes them think that they can get as naked as possible and not offend anyone. The English guys have that pasty white skin that screams 'take me to the emergency room" And the German guys don't seem to care that they are parading about looking like beached whales. They're actually proud of those bonzas hanging out in front of them
