I just walk 100m along the beach and can’t hear them anymore. Most people are too lazy to walk more than that distance from the car park. A fact that is very obvious when I kayak past the coast here and can use the dense clusters of people on the beach as landmarks with almost no one between them. First cluster is the lifeboat station, second and third are cafes, fourth has ice cream.

Its not laziness. It’s because they’re carrying a bunch of stuff for an extended hangout.

  You do realise I can see them right? Many have not. You don’t really need to bring that much with you anyway.

    it ain’t laziness, it’s injury prevention.

I live close to the beach and this is the way. Car is parked, peeps want to lay down IMMEDIATELY NOW. Take 5 minutes to walk down the beach and the crowd thins significantly.

  This applies not just to beach. It applies to everything. Everyone congregates near entrances/exits, landmarks, close to the door in a parking lot, etc.

  5 mins? 15 seconds of walking out in either direction is enough for it to start noticeably thinning out.
