Sand is also hot as fuck especially during the summer. I'm from New Jersey and I'm used to the sand being really hot on the beach during the late summer, to the point that you can barely stand on it.
I went down to South Florida during August and standing on the sand in bare feet was like standing on hot coals.
Edit: rereading this reminded me that even standing on the concrete outside of the pool in early August was unbearable. I initially didn't wear my sandals out because the entrance to the pool area from our hotel was like 100 feet and it was like 15-20 feet from the door to the water. BIG MISTAKE. It was probably the same temperature as the sand. I wouldn't doubt that the sand was 130F.
This article about South Beach said the said was 137F this August, around the time I was down there
Simple answer is to buy a beach house in Scotland then
Same. Fam had a home on LBI in the Terrace oceanside and the damn sand was fire in July & August. God forbid you tried to walk down onto the asphalt streets for the 6 houses up to yours.. it was hot and sticky as it would melt and you’d get tar on your feet (walking the curb was sanctuary).
Building my retirement house now on an island and I’ll be happy with .6km to the beach. I can still see the water and smell the salt air, and that’s great.
Nice! I currently live about a 20 minute drive from Miami Beach and that's fine enough for me. I have an inground pool and sun deck area at my apartment building, so that's good enough for me! I don't need to drag shit long distances and it takes me a few minutes to get to, plus no cleanup (unless you count washing off sweat lol)!
I just googled real quick to see how hot South Florida Beach sand can get and there was an article from this past August (around the time I was down there) that said the beach sand hit 137F!
Wow. 137F? That’s crazy… my wife is Indonesian so we’re moving to Bali, but north on the island where the beaches aren’t great but there’s the sea air to keep you cool. Building a small villa with a pool as well (3m x 8m) for swimming but I still love the beachy vibe of the restaurants and shops along the coast area. Island life - got to love it!
Yeah, insane right? Shocked me too! I guessed it was probably around 125F+ because it was unbearable. We always have a steady 10-30 mph breeze which is nice and it rains a lot, almost every day, but only for a short period of time though so it tends to cool it off a bit.
What you're describing definitely sounds great to me! Enjoy it!
Will do! Party on yourself and happy holidays!
You too!
