too young to recall.

i was probably 1. i was born in florida. however, we moved when i was like 3, so i never remembered it. so, the first time that i remember seeing it was when i was 14 in Alaska to visit my uncle. I didn't make it back to florida til just this year (now i'm 19) so see my hometown and such.

The first time I remember seeing the ocean, I was ten years old. Before that, I may have seen it up until I was five, but I don't remember. From 5 to 10, we lived in Arizona, no ocean.

12 years old at Virginia Beach. I remember it so well...I saw dolphins!
-
First time I remember, I was 6. I went to Crystal Beach in Texas. I'd been to beaches before, when I was a baby. I know this, because there were pictures. I probably didn't enjoy it. I can't see how a baby would enjoy going to a sand-covered beach, wearing diapers. And there were no special ones, when I was a baby. It was in the late 1970s.

There are pictures of me at some beach I don't even remember, like when I was a year old... the first time I remember seeing it was when I was around 6... driving to Misquamicut Beach, in Westerly, RI... my stepdad saying he could smell the salt water miles before we got there, and then the ocean suddenly coming into view as we reached the peak of the last hill... it was quite a thrill to see so much water spread out in front of us like that... ;-)

I was 11 when we moved to Lakewood, California, and I saw the Pacific Ocean for the first time. Now I'm a block from it. Hope there's never a tsunami.

I really don’t know. We went down the shore every summer when I was a kid, but I’m not sure when that started. (Certainly no later than five or six, though)

I was 18 when I 1st saw the Pacific Ocean. But since I grew up on a Great Lake, I did not see the big deal at the time.

My family moved to the Gulf Coast (Texas) when I was 3, so I was familiar with the concept. However, I didn't actually see an ocean (Pacific) until I was 16 and took a trip to California.

Very young to recall. My 2 cents.

From my earliest memories. I grew up near the ocean.

I was born in Berkeley California, so I was probably a few days old when my folks took me home to Oakland. Dad was in the Navy, and as soon as he got out, they returned to their home town, and I was deprived of the pleasure for another 15 years. I moved To Southern California at the earliest opportunity.
-
I was 21. Flew to California for my then-fiance's graduation from Marine boot camp, and went to the ocean in San Diego. Since then, I've visited the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico several times, as well.

Probably 2-3 maybe younger.

Very young, I was born on an island.

I have no memory of seeing the ocean of the first time, which probably means I've been taken to the beach before I even started remembering stuff

I think I was about 4. My Mom and Grandparents took me to the beach and I made a sandcastle with a red bucket. Afterwards I ate my first hamburger. This was one of my first memories.
