One of my favorite pastimes is beach volleyball. Luckily, I live in South Florida, so I am able to enjoy the sport all year. It is a great way to stay in shape and enjoy some time with friends outdoors.
It is a easy game to learn and since you play in the sand , it is actually easy on your joints.
You can play with up to six people on a side, but most higher level games are played with two players on each side. The game has become very popular and has been an Olympic Sport since 1996.
The game started in California and is now played all over the world.

Me, not playing in any major tounament. Just having fun.
The best part of beach volleyball maybe the images of Nature.

I would encourage anyone looking to meet some great people and have some healthy fun to play a game of volleyball.
