Also the ocean is so beautiful and unforgettable. The sounds of the waves coming from the massive deep blue ocean and washing up on the shore of the white sand beach, or the sound of them crashing up against the sharp jagged rocks of the coast line are soothing. Something about the rhythmic timing of each wave causes a relaxing sensation and can almost put you into a deep sleep. The sleep would be hard to come out, not because it’s impossible but only because you wouldn’t want to. Although some individuals may find them extremely annoying I enjoy the sound of the sea gulls on the beach.
The actual seawall is what makes this area unique. The seawall is covered with graffiti drawn by people who frequent the area. There are colorful pictures of smiling suns, dolphins jumping one by one, and an occasional saying of “I was here in 97”, posted by military members soon before they leave the island. I find it astonishing how artistic people are when drawing on the seawall. There are many stories that are told from all the drawings and congee writing.
Wind and waves have a huge impact on beach erosion they are shaping and reshaping the beaches daily, almost as if that’s their responsibility. Taking sand from the beach and moving it out to sea. The waterline just seems to be getting closer and closer than it was the day before (Kaufman and Pilkey 25-8). Waterlines are in a continuous rise and winds are working away at sand dunes. With cameras to survey the beaches, the sand is blown back and forth all around the beaches rising one side of the beach and lowering the other.
The main reason for Bournemouth being a crowded coast is a physical factor; of that it has a large sandy beach. This beach is seven miles long. It attracts people because it is sandy and it is large, so lots of people can go on the beach with enough space. It also has a warm climate. Dorset is the second sunniest place in the UK and its mild winters have few days with frost or snow.
The bulk of the drive consisted of a curvy stretch of highway that followed the coast of southern California. Sometimes you could look to your right outside your window and see whale spouts shooting from the surface of the ocean below us. We’d often use the opportunity to smoke a joint or two. It was the middle of summer but the weather was always perfect, thanks to the cool,
For one, the annual average temperature is 72⁰F with a warm, sunny, mostly dry climate which is perfect for outdoor activities and going to the beach which is suitable for tourism. Speaking of tourist attractions, there are numerous activities and sports to participate in available; such as the Busch gardens with theme park rides, animals and entertainment available, discovery cove which features dolphins, aquariums with the
As a result 5 walls were erected to create a barrier against the waves. The walls were built at the back of the beach to deflect the waves out to sea. The highest edge of each wall is specially shaped to turn the wave back on itself. This management process at South Cronulla has been extremely successful and requires very little maintenance. At North Cronulla concrete footpaths were built on existing sand dunes.
Coney Island's three big luxury hotels, the Manhattan Beach, Oriental and Brighton Beach were the epitome of a gracious and leisurely age, a unique expression of their era. They were long rambling wooden structures, 600 to 800 feet in length with deep verandas (porches) reaching down their entire length. They faced the sea but were set back by wide green lawns decorated with beds of geraniums and lobelias, and had broad curving walks. These gracious hotels became more and more popular with each day. Evening entertainment included music and fireworks.
While in New York, you are constantly on the go and the night life can keep you busy pretty much around the clock. In Myrtle Beach, the city basically shuts down at sundown with dining as the only pastime at night. The main difference between the two is that most activities in Myrtle Beach are water sports and outdoor. However, both cities are tourist destinations that attract all types of people from all walks of life. And both are filled with numerous activities to fill a short weekend vacation or a long extended
That was to be expected though, after traveling across the whole United States. The Pacific coast was the most beautiful place I had ever been. The coast of Georgia was ran over with tourists and fake sand, spread on beaches with garbage washing ashore. The Oregon coast, on the other hand, looked uninhabited. The way the tall, majestic trees lead straight to the edge of cliffs, that fall down onto stunning ridgelines where the ocean crashes again the rocks, was so amazing.
