The wind may blow from sea to land when the global wind resulting from the location of high and low pressure zones blows perpendicularly to the coast line. But this situation is likely not that you speak about.

Winds blowing from sea (or lakes) to the coast and vice-versa when global winds are very weak, are called breezes. They occur from the temperature differences between the large volumes of water and the land. Water has a very high specific heat capacity and a rather large thermal conductivity. Therefore, much heat is needed to increase its temperature and it is also necessary to take much heat from it to decrease its temperature. In addition, thermal convection creates currents that mix the deep water with the surface one. At the contrary, the land surface is rather easy to heat or cool down.

Therefore, the temperature of the sea or lake surfaces stay rather constant or change very slowly. It is hence warmer than the land at night and cooler than the land under the sun radiation.

During the day, the sun heats the land faster than the sea. Thus the land heats the air above it more than the sea heats the air above it. The air above the land becomes warmer, hence lighter and rises, creating a breeze from the sea to the land.

The type of energy transferred between wind and the ocean and land surfaces is simply heat.

Convection is the mode by which transfer of heat through fluid takes place. Sea breeze: It is the wind that blows from the sea towards the land. As during day, lands heats up faster than water and air near to land become hot and rises, and cold air takes the place of hot air. Convection is the process of heat transfer by the bulk movement of molecules within fluid such as gases & liquids. Type of convection: Natural convection. Heat absorbed by the ocean is moved from one place to another, but it doesn't disappear. The heat energy eventually re-enters the rest of the Earth system by melting ice shelves, evaporating water, or directly reheating the atmosphere. The sea breeze circulation is composed of two opposing flows, one at the surface and one aloft. These two flows are a result of the difference in air density between the land and sea caused by the sun's heating. During summer in places near the sea, it is noticed that a breeze blows from the land towards the sea during the night which is called land breeze and from the sea towards the land during the day which is called sea breeze. The land and sea breezes are actually local convection currents. Sea breeze is occurred during daytime by the phenomenon of convection. Convection is the process of heat transfer in fluids by the actual motion of matter. During daytime, land gets heated fast by the heat of the sun, while sea water gets heated slowly. The air above land gets heated and rises up. The air over land in coastal areas heats up more quickly during the day and begins to rise. A low-pressure area forms on the surface as the warm air rises, allowing air from the sea to enter. As a result, the wind direction during the day is from the sea to the land. Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest. Wind and ocean currents help distribute the sun's heat from one part of the planet to a different through convection, the transfer of warmth within the atmosphere by upward motion of the air. The recent air flows toward the poles, and therefore the cold air moves toward the equator. The type of heat transfer that develops ocean currents is known as Convection. In convection, heat is transferred through a fluid (such as water or air) when there is a difference in the temperature within the given fluid. Convection is the movement of heat by a fluid such as water or air. The fluid moves from one location to another, transferring heat along with it. This movement of a mass of heated water or air is called a current. Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves. Waves are caused by winds blowing over the oceans, where the kinetic energy from the wind is transferred to the water. This energy can build up gradually over long distances, and can be harnessed closer to the shore.
