Yeah I can't stand when people don't give you space when there's actually allot of space they can go rather than being right up on you. I could understand if there wasn't much space to begin with and allot of people where around but that beach looked like it had a bunch of space they could have went rather than being near the fishermen. Plus it's a hazard because you could accidentally hook someone because they didn't have the brain cells just to give you some space to throw your rod.

I agree. SO many people out there just not giving a crap that there's a whole world going on around them. I totally get that, especially on vacation, but when they are this obvious, and when they're putting their kids in danger with their lack of attention or care, it's seriously annoying.

And they all get more active at night.
