Creator's Key Takeaways

We've been all over the Caribbean. We've been, you know, to the beautiful Mexico. We've been to Hawaii, all over, you know, the East Coast, the West Coast, and I've never seen beaches this beautiful.

That was an absolutely epic experience. What an incredible day.

Crab Island is, if you've never been, this is our first time, which is crazy because we've lived only seven hours away for most of our life. Um, shame on us, but if you've never been to Crab Island, come check it out. It is absolutely amazing.

That fish was literally swimming and we caught it and killed it. ... That was incredible. That meal was delicious.

Go to the beach for at least one full day.
