I live 11km by car (9km on a map) from the excellent beaches here and almost never go because it's "too far".
- ace2358 4y agoI used to love in inter city north Melbourne for the cool life style. I moved to northern rivers area after 30 years of living in the city. I moved to a house about 1.5km for the beach. Over three years that went from “the closest I’ll ever live to the beach!” To “I can’t be bothered going to the beach, it’s a bit cloudy, not worth it!”. I now live 400m to the beach and go everyday. I’ve grown up a bit an realised that I may never live like this again! We definitely are a costal nation. I love hearing the ocean roar as I go to sleep.
