Today I finally got down to the beach. There are beach
access areas along the shore and I wanted to see how it all works. And I
did. Just a short jaunt and now I have a better feel for what to do to
explore the area.
I was given a few lessons in interesting ways. Was sitting on the beach and watched an older couple set up their chairs/umbrella/luggage in a cove of trees very close to a beach house. Now I was wondering that they were really close to the house and it appeared to me that this area was on private property. Next I looked and a lady came out of the house clearly upset and went over to the couple and told them to leave in a not so nice manner. So they packed up as the lady walked away shaking her head.
I found this curious and wondered where the property line is on all the houses on the beach. Then I saw the lady with a shovel moving sand out to the beach area. Thought perhaps she was filling holes. I chuckled for it just seemed like a very uncomfortable situation with the lady walking a few feet from the couple carrying sand.
My curiosity moved me to go up to the lady and ask her a few questions. I discovered that the couple had set up right over her water lines that was what upset her. And the property line goes all the way to the water’s edge. Yet the area from the water to the houses is mostly public access.
Lessons- being cognizant of others space. Being friendly and asking for info before setting up
