We live about 3 kilometers away from the beach and it's only when the wind comes from the ocean side (west) that we hear the waves.
There are some very severe winds here in the "Cape of Storms" and they hit the front sections of houses at the beach very hard.
So we decided to rather buy a house that is a little bit inland to protect us from the winds. Thankfully it takes only a few minutes to drive to the beach.
You've made a good decision, safety comes first and a protected place is always better for a house
Thank you and I suppose that you know about the winds here in the "Cape of Storms"
First thing that I do when I am in a new area, is to go and sit with a cool drink in a pub to listen to the locals chat.
After an hour or so, I can tell you anything about the place lol.
Hahaha nice. Actually I do not know many things about the place you are living, I will do my research
Right, but remember that what you find in your research and what they talk about in the pubs are two different worlds entirely hahaha.
That's true
