what is sea breeze

Sea breezes are caused by unequal heating and cooling of adjacent land and sea surfaces. A sea breeze is one that blows from the sea to the land in consequence of this differential heating.During the day, solar radiation causes the land surface to become warmer than the sea surface.These create a pressure minimum over the land due to its relative warmth, and forces higher pressure, cooler air from the sea to move inland.
