Oregon has some nice beaches too, but the water is a tad cold.

The beaches here are hot as hell...I, personally, have had the chance to comment on some excellent T&A in my time.


Oh, wait, not THOSE beaches? ;)

Oregon doesn't have any beaches.

We have a coast. And it is very nice. But we don't get a beach :p


???

What do you call all that sand between Linclon City and Newport? There are also nice beaches near Coos Bay, ever been to Sunset Beach? neat place.

WE have Beautiful sand beachs along the entire central coast, some of the nicest sand in the world.

Worst weather and coldest water in the world also, but the beachs are nice and they are empty too!!

EDIT:

Here is a typical empty Oregon beach.

(Sorry, this is a scan of a 30yr old 35mm Slide.

The North San Diego County beaches are awful... really bad. No water, No sand, too many people, Sars, Mad cow disease and dog poop all around... I'd advise you stay away.
Go to Florida or Oregon... much better. Thanks.:D

Those are nothing compared to our nice Galveston beaches along with our brown ocean.

Makalawena (#7) is nice and all, but hard to get to, keeps tourists out. Hapuna is definatly a great beach, lots of sweet honies. Man the big island has some nice beaches so close to home. :)

Eh, whatever...Ocean City is enough for me.

yep.... i went to the car show last weekend... to bad it rained... i almost got drunk enough to go for a swim but the wind and rain made me change my mind.

Okay. I went to the one there two years ago, and had to skip it this year because of a lack of funds, and I also wanted to spend my 21st up here at school. My cousin and some of my buddies went this year, and were telling me that it kind of sucked, because it didn't seem like there were as many cars driving up and down the strip because of the rain. He said it was also kind of cold, too. Are you in the area? Last year we went up there for the Fireman's Convention...that is awesome. Just basically a week-long party...(like any week during the summer isn't a party at Ocean City, though, right? :beer::D:beer:

Yup I grew up in Redondo Beach and used to go down to the beach after work -- water still swimmable in bare skin 10 PM at night. And nice scenery during the day, too.

So no envy here, even though I'm now in Washington state where the beaches are half- frozen hells :)

I don't care for the beach myself.

Sand gets into everything. ( I mean EVERYTHING)

You can't drink the water. (I tried) ;)

There are large things living in the water that would like nothing better than to EAT YOU. (And NOT in a good way)
