1. He goes to the beach
2. He is going to the beach pretty similar, and interchangeable sometimes. The first is a fact, the second is the same fact but with a personal touch ("se") Saludos

"Me voy a la playa" or "voy a la playa" is the usual way.
"estoy yendo a la playa" is correct but not so common. It's a current activity. It´s like "What I am doing now it's going to the beach" Saludos

They are completely the same right?
To likes Sosia said before. He goes to the beach. El se de la casa. El se esta llendo de la casa. He goes to the home. He's going to the home. He gone to the house. Greetings.

Previous post has wrong information, which should be:
El se va de la casa. -> He leaves home. El se está yendo de la casa. -> He is leaving home.

Angelica.
You're right, I didn't see the mistakes in my post, in fact I never read again my last post. I'm sorry for that kind to wrongs more when it written in Spanish. In essence you have wrote again but the initial idea continue being the same so I can give him a little idea about as he can uses that phrases in Spanish. Thank you for your replica.
