It wasn't a straightforward solve, but I've got my toes in the sand! Happily! Eager for the Martini to come!

Just opened but looks like a toughie with only 4 entries in 40 minutes.
I'm all TPS right now because I just realized I forgot to solve last Friday's MGWCC Week 1. Damn those family trips...

The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

Grid done, and already down my first rabbit hole!
For nudges, feel free to PM me. I won't have a clue how to help you, but you might shove me ashore.

Took a long time, but I think I got it, and it makes sense, and I loved it.

Something familiar…..I finally got it after several rabbity tunnels. On the beach having a blood orange margarita. The cabana boy is lounging on a towel waiting for the hordes of bodies to rise up out of the water.

On the beach. Had a sense of deja vu doing this one. Possibly this type of thing was done before, several years ago?

Ashore!! The aha moment was so sweet on this. Glad I got in on page one, but my pals, leave other types of comments for page two and beyond so at least 19 people get a chance to put their toes in the sand on page one. Otherwise, you’ll incur Wendy’s displeasure. And that’s not good…

The meta is soooo close but I can't quite crack it. The scheme is pretty obvious but everything I try just generates jibberish. I might have to break into the cabana to loosen up my mind before solving this one.

Like others I have figured out the mechanism but I'm getting jibberish

Im not an Elton John fan much anymore, but his song Rocket Man comes to mind right now. Specifically, “...and I think its gonna be a long, long time...” (until I solve this meta).
