Sunderland is a seaside town so its always been right on my doorstep, figuratively speaking. Literally for my sister's first married home, I used to love to go and stay with her, Roker was just a road-crossing away.
However, when you know you can go anytime, the novelty does wear off a bit and I haven't been since February when my sister came to visit, she now lives 30 miles from the coast and must go at least once a visit.

I live in Eastbourne which is a seaside resort on the south coast of England. The seafront is less than half a mile from my house. I do know what you mean about not bothering about going to the sea. I have lived here for sixteen years now and have only been swimming in the sea once in all that time. I do regularly walk along the seafront, in fact I did today.

England is sooooo small, how can any one live 30 mile from the coast?
I can walk to the beach from my place. Takes about 30 min. We take our dog to the doggy beach at least once a fortnight; she loves it. Doesn't matter what time of the year it is or how cold, she just runs straight in.
We was the last time you went for a swim?
It's summer; do it now, go and have a swim!

The nearest sea to where I live is about 50 minutes drive away. The nicest beaches and sea are at West Wales and that's about 1 1/2 hours drive away. It's further to go, but well worth it.

I used to live in Manchester and would go the the coast all summer long. Now I live in Colorado, USA and it is a two day drive, about 1500 miles. I miss it soooo much.

I live about 10 mins from the beach and yes the novelty has long since worn out.

About 45 mins drive away. Which is good because its not so close that i have the petrol or time to go every week, and not too far that i have to plan for it and can only go like a couple of times a year. Mind you its only Hunstanton - not very exciting!
