BEACHES AND FANTASY

When you read beach, immediately you start thinking about sunsets,peace and calmness. Don't you?
But sorry to burst your bubble, when in reality you go to a beach it's full of people and chaos all around. To be specific it's commercialised. What? Don't you agree? 
As avid fictional reader, my imagination for a beach is beautiful and empty. But when in reality I go to a beach my enthusiasm is drowned already. So recently I been to Daman and to be smart enough I didn't go on a weekend to find it empty. But to my amusement on a working day too it was full of people, and I was like,"Why on this earth, people are visiting a beach on a working day?" Then I remembered, I'm not only the smart person who thought of the above scenario. So in Daman there are 2 big beaches, and both were full.  After a few minutes of drive I decided to give up and go back home and I'm no more interested in watching a sea and land. But this is not only a incident that made me feel sad. Apart from this, commercialisation near the beaches made me sad. If you will ever enter Daman , there'll be series of hotels, motels and spa centres. Also, a fun fact, Daman is famous for cheap beer and wines. So you'll find many wine shops too. The problem I have is excess of hotels and resorts, that too luxurious ones. The space they take reduces the beach part. The main attraction of the place is hidden by big luxurious hotels, I really don't think it's necessary. Besides the congested it looks :( Anyways, I really don't think that there's a solution for it. As the economy is the lowest in the country, tourism sector provides contributes much of it. Also, nowadays people just want to lay back and enjoy wherever they go , they just want to sleep in the cosy beds for the hotel room and not go look around. Likewise, Daman has become a hub for shooting for many TV serials as the sets in Maharashtra are shut due to covid. So the need for the hotel rooms for the staff is necessary. But I really feel sorry for all the natural places that are becoming commercialised under the name of tourism. What do you think? Is it fine under commerce sector . Comment.
