PSA: Not everyone from California likes to surf or even likes the beach.
While many people out-of-state are eager to go to California beaches to take advantage of the warm weather, most Californians probably don’t go to the beach more than once or twice a year.

Even though the ocean helps define California, the state should be known for many other reasons.
