What are common North Carolina beach snakes?

I don't know if it is common but I saw what I believe to be an Eastern Worm Snake on a dune on Oak Island. It was long and skinny with a head the same size as the rest of its body. It was a dark rust color and I saw it along a path through the dunes. When I tried to "scare" it out of the way with a piece of driftwood, it made no attempt to flee. First snake I have ever seen in the 20 years we have vacationed there.

How does the foam at the beach occur?

Stormy conditions at the time whipped up the foam, which consists of masses of tiny bubbles. John Dengate of the NSW Department of Environment explained that the foam was formed from the remains of organic material such as plankton and seaweed that had been pulverized on rocks. An entry about sea foam published in the Q & A section of the New York Times offers are more detailed explanation: Like a bathtub full of bubbles, sea foam needs two ingredients," said Dr. Elizabeth L. Venrick, a marine ecologist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, Calif., "something to [decrease] the surface tension of the water, like bubble bath, and something to froth it up, like water running into the tub." In the ocean, the "bubble bath" is usually dissolved organic material, she said, and strong surface winds or the breaking of waves on the beach stir up the water with air to make bubbles. "The organic material comes from a number of sources, usually a concentration of biomass, like the phytoplankton bloom that causes red tide or a fish kill," Dr. Venrick said. (A bloom is an increase in the numbers of some species or complex of species that then die or are eaten, releasing organic material.) The material can also come from sewer spills and other terrestrial runoff, she said. The creation of such large amounts of foam is unusual, but not unprecedented. Large amounts of foam also smothered the beach at Pt Cartwright on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland in January 2008. And sea foam also encroached on the shore at Hampton Beach, New Hampshire after stormy weather in April 2007.

What is the nearest beach to Vilnius in Lithuania?

If you mean a seaside beach then there are two major ones: Palanga and Nida. The first one is more popular, noisy and cheap. The second one is smaller, located in a national park and very beautiful. Both are a bit more then 300km from Vilnius. Apart from the seaside beaches you could go to one of the many lakes. There are plenty of them around Vilnius. The closest ones are 10-30km away. I would recommend a town Trakai that is surrounded by multiple lakes.
