because when air molecules bang into the hot surface of the land, energy transfers to the air molecules. because of this energy transfer, the air molecules fly around faster. the air gets hot. the hot-air molecules bang into each other harder. that pushes the molecules further apart. different temperatures of the ocean and land are around the beach because some things may block some of the hot sun or cold breeze. that's why its different
