Have you ever sunbathed on the shores of the Atlantic or the Pacific Ocean? Chances are, if you have, you can close your eyes and remember the smell of the ocean water, the feel of the sand beneath your toes, and the warmth of the golden sun on your skin. Not much can compare to a day at the ocean unless you live in Missouri, home to countless beautiful beaches. And, if you’ve not been to this beach before or in a while, you’ll definitely want to plan a day away at Moonshine Beach in Missouri.
Feel as though you’ve traveled straight to the coast at Moonshine Beach Recreation Area in Branson, a popular sandy beach that leads into Table Rock Lake.

Start off your day at the shore by finding the perfect spot to drop your beach towel or beach chair. And, plant your beach umbrella firmly in the sand.

How about a little bit of fun in the sand before jumping into the cool water of Table Rock Lake? Start or join an impromptu game of beach volleyball.

Build a majestic sandcastle. Toss a Frisbee with others. Or, relax with a good book.
