Referring to the way one shuffles into
work/class the day after having spent a full day at the
beach, moving a little more slowly than usual because of the excessive
use of back and shoulder muscles for
water and/or beach sports, the inability to sit or lay comfortably due to the sunburn ranging from irritating to ragingly painful that dictates every move and raises the unnecessary question from everybody of "Did you go to the beach?", and crunchy remnants of sand in the hair, ears, eyes, mouth, or other susceptible body parts even after showering.
Note: A beach hangover can take anywhere from hours to days before achieving a full recovery and
may just require a few showers and
water, or copious amounts of Aloe Vera and electrolytes.
I spent my entire Labor Day at the beach surfing and chilling with
friends, but ended up going to
work with a beach hangover the next day.
My cousin was visiting Florida from
Minnesota for a week and had a beach hangover her entire stay after spending the first day on the beach.
