    There would be far less wind along coastlines: During the day land tends to heat up quickly and hot air rises allowing cooler air from the water to move inland. This is often called a sea breeze.

    At night, however, the land cools quickly an the warmer air over the water rises drawing cooler air out to sea. This is often called a land breeze.

    (If there were no such differences there would be neither land, nor sea breezes along the coastlines.)
