Folks would just have to come to LSR and check it out for themselves.
I've been to beaches in Galveston, Surfside, Port Aransas, and Corpus Christi. All are awesome.
I'm from St. Louis and know a lot about being landlocked..with the exception of the Mississippi that Richard mentions that leads to the ocean. I didn't see the ocean for the first time until I was 12. The next time, 18. The next time, 30. Florida, Maine/South Carolina, Texas. Each time made me feel smaller than a grain of sand - the ocean is so vast and the waves can be so powerful.

What St. Louis has that no other regional has, is the Gateway to the West. Right there on that muddy Mississippi, the great river of historical significance and change.
