![Gold Star Critiquer/Silver Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 580 W: 42 N: 441]](http://i1.treklens.com/misc/g-s-g.gif) (3041) | We usually think of sunsets in conjunction with beaches and islands. Why? Does humidity and water have something to do with sunsets? The answer is yes...and no. Large masses of water and a hot sun do combine to produce dramatic clouds.
But that's not the main reason we usually see the most dramatic sunsets from a beach. The reason is more subtle.
The main reason we associate beaches with sunsets is that they give us an unobstructed view of the setting sun on the horizon. No mountains in the way. No buildings. No city lights. Just a flat horizon and the setting sun. Plus a smooth expanse of water to reflect the colors!
Plus, if you're hanging around on the beach, you're probably relaxed and in the mood to enjoy a great sunset. You have time to watch the sun go down and savor the changes that take place over time.
