You need to check out the rang thang or air-yo. Wonderful zero wind "toys". Good skills on stacking those though. Takes patience.

Enjoying the beach, hiking and exploring are all great ideas. Looks like you guys are having a great time.
There have been many days we have had no wind. So, I purchased an ultra light. But the one I have needs a little breeze to stay airborne.
I'm also looking into making a rang thang and buying a RC electric glider. Last year I bought a bocce set and talk about alot of fun. And you can play bocce in heavy winds, no winds, rain, sun etc.
But the best part of it all is the time spent with your family.

Any day at the beach is fun but it is more fun with wind. We have a towel that is a checker board so we use that when we can not fly, among other things. Rocks are fun, no rocks at the beach we usually fly at. Looks like fun!

I second that vote, nice useful no-wind, low wind toy and great fun, I can wear myself out with it in no time so i'm sure it can tire kids out too...eventually
