Swimming in the Beach

Today I was walking along the beach, as I commented in other journals, when the sun disappeared behind a clouds. There was not people apart from some people strolling, and only a person swiming in the water, that went out a bit some later. The sand was a bit cool, but when I arrived to the edge, I noted slightly warm this damp sand. Finally, I got in the water, and later some minutes I found me very well into water. In that moment, I was the only person swiming, in a desert beach in front of Barcelona city. In August, there were thousands people in that same beach. A bit later, I went out of the water, and I came back home.

Swimming inat the Beach

Today I was walking along the beach, as I commented in other journals, when the sun disappeared behind a clouds.

The part about journals is confusing and it's not relevant to the story.

There was not people one there, apart from some people strolling, and only ae person swimming in the water, that went out a bit some later.

The last part of the sentence is confusing. Do you mean no one was there at first, but then later some people arrived and started swimming and walking?

The sand was a bit cool, but when I arrived to the edge, I noticed slightly warm this damp sandthe damp sand was slightly warmer.

"Noted" means to remember a piece of information you plan to use later.

Finally, I got in the water, and later some. A few minutes later I found meyself very well intodeep in the water.

In that moment, I was the only person swimming, in at a deserted beach in front of Barcelona city.

You were "at" the beach because you were close to it, but not "in" the sand. We never say "a beach in front of the city" but we can say "a beach in (city)" or "a beach near (city)"

IBack in August, there were thousands of people inat that same beach.

A bit later, I wentcame out of the water, and I camewent back home.

Do you mean you wrote about walking along the beach in another journal entry? :)

You could either use "a cloud" or "the clouds" here! Usually we'd say "the clouds" plural.

There was noteren't any people apart from some people strolling, and only a person swimming in the water, that went out a bit some later.

"weren't any people" would fit better here, or "There were no" people. "swimming" with two ms. "A bit later", not "a bit some later" - that's just how it's phrased!

The sand was a bit cool, but when I arrived ato the edge, I noted slightly warm this damp sand.

"arrived at" not "arrived to".

Finally, I got in the water, and later some minutes later I found me veryyself well into the water.

We usually use "myself" for this sort of construction. We'd also use the phrase "some minutes later".

In that moment, I was the only person swimming, in a deserted beach in front of Barcelona city.

When you say "desert" here, do you mean it was abandoned/there were not many people? If so, "deserted" would be the word you'd want.

In August, there were thousands people ion that same beach.

A bit later, I wengot out of the water, and I came back home.

Overall very well done! You're doing a great job expressing what you mean, just a few errors with prepositions and some grammar bits here and there. You made me long to visit the beach - I haven't been to one in about three years now. Well done!
