No waves. And the surfing is rubbish.
I don't think I'd necessarily want to live next to it, but for holidays, and swimming without a wetsuit, bring it on....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

I'm not sure I'm properly British, I hate cold water whether it is the sea, swimming pool or a shower; even thinking about anything below 35 degrees makes me uncomfortable....I think....0

I like waves, but also like their absence.
