Nice capture. You have many crop options here, landscape and portrait. Firstly rotate so the horizon is level then play with crops putting the child in the "thirds", you should have lots of good options.
Personally I'd crop to a portrait, with about three inches cropped from the left and about one inch cropped from the right.

I'd suggest you turn on Image Editing to OK and then people will probably show you different crops.

Here is my rendition... I cropped (I think I should have cropped more, but I didn't want to go too far), and converted to B&W and added a bit of blue because I thought it set the mood. I also had to resize and the conversion looks a bit funky now, but you may get what I was looking for.

I have added a second consideration for you.

I like how you have more space on the one side. I was trying to figure out a good crop without loosing the ocean on the top.

I'm glad that you like it. It's tough to try and enhance a photo of this size.
