I have to say all in all the beach is the better of the two. Although I throughly enjoy the mountains, but the thing with the mountains you can really enjoy them any time of the year, there isn't a bad time to visit the mountains. The beach on the other hand is really only enjoyable in the summer time, when the temperature is right, plenty of sun and warm sand. If you get to warm you can always take a dip in the cool blue waters. The wind is almost always blowing, especially in the late afternoon and early morning hours. There is nothing more relaxing than sitting on the warm sand facing the ocean waters, listening to the waves come and go, with your head tilted slightly back, your eyes closed, letting the warm summer wind wash over face, and dance through your hair, not having a care in the world.
If just sitting and relax is not your speed there is so much more to do and enjoy. Like surfing, boogie boarding, or combing the shore line for all kinds of treasures, or you can always try your hand at building a sand castle, or for the athletic type you could always play volleyball, football or take a jog. No matter what your particular desires are, there is something for you at the beach.
