A recent study showed conclusively that people living by the sea or going there on a regular basis are in better health compared to people living further from the coast.
15,000 inhabitants of 14 European countries and Australia were questioned about their general state of health by the research team in the form of self-administered questionnaires.
The results showed that living closer to the coast predicted a better health self-reported within countries. “It is important to note that the greatest improvement in health when living closer to the coast, namely 37.9% of the total improvement, occurs between less than 1 km and 1 to 2 km” specifies the study.

More seaside walks predict better self-reported health within countries according to the study: “Note that 13.3% of the total increase in health when visiting the coast occurs more often between the first two categories ‘once a week or more often’ and ‘once every 2 or 3 weeks’, while 53.4% occurs between the last two categories ‘once or twice a year’ and ‘never’. »
