No....but I still love my beach. You can't beat sitting on the deck on a full moon watching the waves crash with your girlfriend.

The cleanest beach I've ever been to is along the coast of Nova Scotia. I'm only saying it's clean because it was covered with thick snow when I was there. Would prefer snow covered over sand covered beach anytime.

I live 15 minutes away from the beach and it might as well not be there. I never go.
