Romantic Beach Quotes – Beautiful Sayings for Seashore Lovers

Everyone who loves the beach has a special affinity for the poetry of the sea. Let these romantic beach quotes bring peace to your soul and calm to your busy day.

Scientists tell us that being near water is healing to both our minds and bodies. Gazing out over water to the horizon allows us to escape from overstimulation. Compared to the usual chaos of life, what we see and hear is blissfully simplified.

Our mindfulness increases when we’re around water. We are more present in the moment, and less burdened by anxiety and stress. We may even feel more connected, to ourselves, to others, to the world around us.

Why are we so drawn to the ocean? In 2014 Wallace J. Nichols wrote the book Blue Mind: The Surprising Science That Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected, and Better at What You Do. Well that certainly covers it!

Not that we need scientists or anyone else to tell us what we already know. Those of us who love the beach and the ocean are drawn there because of the way we feel inside. It’s the sights, the sounds, the wind, the smells. It’s breathing in the salty air and feeling the warm sand beneath our feet.

We love the soothing peacefulness of a gently rolling surf on a calm, beautiful morning. We love witnessing the stunning power of angry waves crashing ashore as a storm blows in.

We love the ocean’s many moods, and its nearness brings us a state of mind we can’t experience anywhere else. Some things can’t be expressed in words, but these quotes bring to mind thoughts, feelings, and moments that will surely resonate with lovers of the seashore.
