The climate near coastal regions moderate : The sp. heat capacity of water is very high or sp. heat capacity of land is much low as compared to water. As such land (or sand) gets cooled more rapidly as compared to water under similar conditions. Thus, a large difference in temperature is developed between the land and the sea, due to which cold air blows from land towards sea during night (i.e. land breeze) and during the day cold air blows from sea towards land (i.e. sand breeze). These make the climate near coastal region moderate.
