according to a Recent study from beach.com93 percent of a distance on the beach claims “to practice good beach etiquette, yet almost all (92 percent) also accept at least a bad beach habit.” The study surveyed 1,000 people, analyzing both of them how people wonder that they behave on the beach and how they actually do.
According to the site, three “most shameless beach behavior” are American attached, taking sand or shells, urinating in water, and drinking alcohol. In fact, 70.1 percent of people accept to urinate in water (and it is only ready to accept those people), while about half (48.6 percent) states that they consume alcohol on the beach, and 38.6 percent of the shells accept the shells.
While all these behavior are not necessarily great, taking shells from the beach can be the most harmful to all. according to a 2014 studyTourists removing the shells from popular beaches “have declined in habitat such as beach erosion, changes in calcium carbonate recycling, and abundance of organisms and organisms, depending on shell availability.”
