The beach should be for all, not just the wealthy. No one should be allowed to build any closer than 100 meters from the water. You might think you own a piece of the beach, but no one ever owns anything. If you build on the beach, then you deserve to have your house washed away.

Not an American ex-pat's opinion, or a real estate agent's opinion, but an experienced attorney. You should find out all the various aspects of owning property and the particular restrictions that come with beach front property. Before going any further and certainly before giving any money to anyone, you should understand the legalities. If you have visited Santa Clara, then you already know it is a pretty remote location. Perhaps that is what you are looking for. Remote can be good or less good, depending on your personal perspective. All that said, I hope you find the place of your dreams, without any hassles along the way. ;-) Elizabeth,
