During what season are the beaches narrowest?


During what season are the beaches narrowest? All beaches are widest in late summer when waves are low, and narrowest in late winter, after erosive storms.


During which season does the beach get bigger?

During the summer, waves retrieve sand from sandbars and build the beach back up again. These seasonal changes cause beaches to be wider and have a gentle slope in the summer, and be narrower and steeper in the winter.


Do people go to the beach in winter?

A trip to the beach in winter is the purest form of escape. There is no worry about the weather. A summer beach vacation can be knocked off course by a few days of rain, but not a winter trip. There are no activities on the daily calendar, because not much is open and there is no hurry to grab a good spot on the beach.
