    Why is "Tomorrow I am going to walk BY the beach" incorrect..?

        Is "Amanha vou andar pela praia" correct? Is the 'eu' necessary in a sentence such as this one?

              Could 'Tomorrow I will walk to the beach' be correct? Or does it have to be 'para' in that case? Thanks!

                Actually it wouke be better to use "caminhar até a praia" with this verb.

                  Ah, thanks! You use 'até' to describe going to a certain place? Like 'Eu vou dirijo até a casa'

                      Does "andar" also mean "to go"?

                        No. Andar = to walk / ir = to go

                          PE. I think it is also used "to come". I am forever hearing Portuguese shouting at their dogs "anda cá" (come here) Am I right?

                            Well, I think it depends on the region then. I have never heard "anda cá".
