Best Answer

England's Navy was too strong. Napoleon never managed to have Naval parity with the UK in terms of Naval shipping tonnage, Naval gunfire, Naval tactics or Naval leadership. An invasion fleet would have bee badly mauled on the way to the beach. It would never have been capable of putting an adequate landing party onto the shore to take the offensive and could not provide the logistical support if it did.
