Here in Maine we have the same things like sand castle building, shell hunting - playing on the beach with your dog or even taking your horse for a ride on the beach - but the water itself is always too cold to enjoy going into - and believe me we have snow - it snowed again yesterday and we have more snow coming Friday and Saturday - the end of this week. But our beaches are pretty much just like Florida beaches - it is the temp of the water that makes the difference.
Being a Florida girl who loved riding waves, and swimming - my first day in Maine I could not wait to run and jump in the water - and believe me it was not a pleasant experience. I had never seen such cold water - never mind the small waves... but apparently fishing and crabbing is good in Maine - lol - which is also not my thing really.
But what I am getting at is the beach is no relief from all the snow - as it snows on the beach too and makes it even colder than areas of the woods and mountains. Beach areas have constant cold, wet breezes so even walking on the beach to admire the scenery and all Maine famous lighthouses in real life - just isn't all that enjoyable.
Needless to say the visuals aren't all what they appear. In Maine it may look like a beach - but very seldom does it feel like a beach. LOL.
When we first came to Maine we lived in Ocean Park, Maine in Old Orchard Beach - On top of it summertime in Ocean Park mean lots of dangerous undertows. I almost lost two of my sons who got caught up in one just playing on the edge of the water - building sandcastles no less. Thanks to four brave life guards - they were able to save them.
