Does anyone know the patron saint of beaches? (or islands or coasts, or anything beach-related)

Thanks!

there doesn't seem to be one in the Christian religion. there would be some non-christian ones in Pagaism (not saints) but gods/goddess.Erie would be an example.the name of one of the three Goddess that rule Ireland.

All I can find or think of is Mary Star of the Sea. There are no beach, island, coast patron saints in general. Do you have a specific island in mind?

Saints give blessing to people not places, St. Patrick, for example, is the Patron of the Irish People, not the Irish countryside. The same would be true for beaches, etc.

Well, I tried to look it up for you, but there were no beaches, coasts, or anything like that. Here is a link to all every Saint Tom, Dick, & Harry - and the topics they cover. Maybe you can pick one that suits your needs. Good luck! http://www.catholic-forum.com/saints/patronnf.htm

There's no such thing... If you are a real Chrstian...you are a saint. If not... you're not... Patron saints are just people elevated by a religious system... and they are ordinary folks like you and me. You could pray to me and get the same result.....nothing. I don't answer prayers. I pray them.
