A sea breeze forms during the day! READ THIS!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the day breaks, the land will get heated quickly than the water. Hence the low pressure area is created in the land region. Then the cool air above the sea region flows to the low pressure area and such flow is a Sea breeze.

Sea breezes, which are experienced at the coast, usually occur twice during the day. During mornings, when the sea is warmer than the land, the breezes blow "onshore" (towards the land, but during the evening, when the land is warmer than the sea, they blow "offshore" (towards the sea.
Of course the breezes are convection currents caused by differences in temperature

∙ 13y agoA sea breeze occurs when the land is warmer than the water; which starts to happen a little while after sunrise. So, I would say between 12:00 P.M. and 4:00 P.M. would be the strongest sea breeze. This time would be when there is the most difference in temperature between the land and water.

∙ 11y agoSea breeze A sea breeze blows from the sea toward land. During the day the air above the land is warmer than the air above the water. The air rises creating low pressure at the surface of the land . The air above the water moves toward the land. Land breeze A land breeze blows from the land toward the sea. At night the water is warmer than the land. The air above the land is cooler, so it sinks. This creates high pressure at the surface of the land. The air above the land moves toward the water.

∙ 9y ago- The sea water warms up slowly than adjacent land and gives up heat more slowly than the adjacent land. Accordingly, during day time the air over the sea water warms up less than the air over the adjacent land. The sea has a greater heat capacity than land and can therefore absorb more heat than the land, so the surface of the sea warms up more slowly than the land's surface.
- As the temperature of the surface of the land rises, the land heats the air above it. The warm air is less dense and so it rises. This rising air over the land lowers the sea level pressure on land .
- The cooler air above the sea, now with higher sea level pressure, flows towards the land into the lower pressure, creating a cooler breeze near the coast.
- The strength of the sea breeze is directly proportional to the temperature difference between the land and the sea.
- If the environmental wind field is greater than 8 knots and opposing the direction of a possible sea breeze, the sea breeze is not likely to happen.

Compare and Contrast sea breezes and land breezes?
Sea breezes come from the sea onto the land, and land breezes come from the land onto the sea.
What type of breezes occur because land cools off faster than water?
They are sea breezes.
Why sea breezes occur during afternoon?
seabreezes occur during the afternoon i.e. during the day time because the land remains warmer than the sea during the day . Low pressure is created over the land causing the winds to blow from the sea to land .thus , sea breezes occur during the afternoon.
Sea breezes land breezes and mountain breezes are examples of?
constantly
Describe how land breezes and sea breezes form?
They form.
Compare and Contrast sea breezes and land breezes?

What type of breezes occur because land cools off faster than water?
They are sea breezes.
How are land breezes and sea breezes related?
Land breezes and sea breezes are both breeze, or cool air.
Why sea breezes occur during afternoon?
seabreezes occur during the afternoon i.e. during the day time because the land remains warmer than the sea during the day . Low pressure is created over the land causing the winds to blow from the sea to land .thus , sea breezes occur during the afternoon.
What are type of wind?
Sea Breezes: From sea to land.Land Breezes: From land to sea.
What time of day does land breeze occur?
Land breezes occur during the time of night.
Sea breezes land breezes and mountain breezes are examples of?
constantly
Why do sea and land breezes occur?
Land and sea breezes occur because of the different heating rates of land and sea. A sea breeze or onshore breeze is a gentle wind blowing from sea toward land. They develop when the land heats up and the air above the land rises, air then moves from the sea towards the land. A land breeze or offshore breeze, blowing from land to sea, is the reverse effect, caused when land cools more quickly than water in the evening.

How do you compare sea breezes and land breezes?
Sea breezes come from land and over the water, and happen in daytime. Land breezes come from water and over the land, and happen at night.
Why land and sea breezes form?
sea and land breezes form because of differences in air pressure and tempature.
