Even in the absence of major wind systems or rain showers, there will still often be a coastal breeze because sunlight heats land surfaces more rapidly than sea surfaces. During the day this generates rising air and a breeze blowing from the sea onto the shore. During the night, the land cools more rapidly so there is sinking air flowing from the shore to the sea.
Daytime winds are generally sea breezes and night winds are generally land breezes.

Why do coastal areas get offshore winds at night?
Coastal areas can experience offshore winds at night due to the cooling of the land after sunset. As the land cools, the air above it also cools, becoming denser and heavier, causing it to flow towards the warmer air over the ocean. This results in offshore wind patterns at night along the coast.
