Student Life The Beach

With Butterfly Beach and East Beach just a short shuttle ride away, Westmont students are often seen in these locations getting their toes wet or partaking in a game of beach volleyball. Other popular beaches in the area include Hammond's, Hendry's, and Ledbetter. Just to the south, Rincon offers its famous surf and to the north, several state parks boast of their beautiful beaches and camping grounds. 

Students are commonly spotted on these beaches taking walks along the sand, catching a sunrise, picnicking, having spike ball or volleyball tournaments, having Bible studies or relaxing.
