It would take a lot of alcoholic drinks to keep you in a semi-conscious state and you still wouldn’t dissolve. You could certainly bury part of your body in beach sand for a while but you would eventually have to get up to eat and rehydrate.

Become a marine biologist.

I mean, I'm one. Okay, I have a bachelor's and not a PhD in it, so technically, I just have a degree but for purposes of our discussion, let's assume the title.

So being a marine biologist will make one part of the beach? Well, not really, no. I live on I-35, 3 hours or so from the beach. Why don't I live on the beach?

Because as a marine biologist, I know the beach, the estuaries are too delicate for humans to be living there. So I do my part and live inland and only go to the beach when I have work, be it actual work or a vacation, to do.

You want to be part of the beach? Then learn what an ecosystem it is and be there only when you need to be.

I especially love coral. I didn’t discover my interest in coral till after I graduated university, but I’ve considered taking classes on it as a non-degree seeking student. If coral does well at the beach, its a beach I will like. I still have never surfed, but I enjoy scuba.
