To everyone: do you pay to visit the beach in your country?
|
I know the question may seem ridiculous but I need to know whether you're being taxed for visiting the sea beach in your country. If you have ever visited Bulgarian beaches, you've probably encountered some fat and scary guy who collects money from people for entering the beach the same manner you're being taxed for parking spots.

No. I grew up in Florida. They're -charging- you for the privilege of risking a dirty syringe between your toes? Deplorable. What's the upshot, you get to swim in the water the fish screw in?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
In Oregon USA not only do you not have to pay to use the beaches, they're all considered a public resource and the public has an easement to the high tide line and there are laws regarding public access.
You wouldn't want to swim without a dry suit, though. 
Nuuupe. You can step on broken glass and freeze your ass off for free
Not in NC. Parking on the other hand is usually five bucks or more.

I have been charged for access to some private beaches in Miami and Ft. Meyers.
I was with a lady friend both times, and we required some privacy.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I don't know of any pay beaches here in the UK, but I'd never pay for one here if there was. Beaches in the UK aren't worth paying for.
If I was in a popular tourist spot in another country and wanted privacy, sure I'd consider it if the price was fair. There's nothing worse than being on a beach in Spain where all you have is your little square metre of beach, surrounded by fat chavvy sunburnt Brits in every direction. I'm not here for that.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
There is also a dog beach so you can get barked at and physically assaulted, all for free
