If ever I would get
trapped on the beach, I would ensure our survival until some help arrived. The
top priority would be to search for drinking water and food. I would collect as
many coconuts as possible from the coconut trees that abound on beaches. The
next priority would be to find source of food. In this emergency situation,
fruit trees could be of great help. On islands, coconut palm trees can easily
be found. Fish can also be caught from the streams of fresh water. Next
priority would be to find an ideal shelter that would be quite safe. Hammocks,
high above the ground could be tied for the safe sleep for the first night.
Hammocks would keep the group members safe on that unfamiliar beach. In order
to keep the cold off, in case it got quite cold at night, fire could be
lighted. Fired could be produced by hitting two stones against each other, or
by rubbing two dry sticks vigorously. A burnt fire would also help in keeping
dangerous animals at bay. Next day we would have to devise some methods to send
SOS signals, either by burning fire and putting wet wood or leaves on it for
smoke. These are some of the measures that I would use to survive on an
unfamiliar beach. Finally I would climb a cliff to see whether there was
any boat or ship around whose help I could take to get back home.
