By the sea Word Search.
A tiny seaside escape, wherever you happen to be. Find ten words inspired by salty air, sandy walks and the sound of the waves.
A word search for a quiet moment
Every puzzle hides ten words in a 12 × 12 grid. The words are connected by a theme, so you might visit the seaside, wander a garden or settle into a coffee break. Words can share letters, and some run backwards. You can select a word from either end.
This puzzle’s words: beach, breeze, coral, dunes, harbor, island, ocean, shell, tide, waves.
A little strategy
Try the longest words first. They give you a more distinctive pattern to look for. If a word has an unusual letter or a repeated pair, scan for that pattern instead of checking every first letter. A hint outlines the first letter of one remaining word.
