I love the feeling whenever I'm near the sea where I can listen to the song of the wave and feel the gentle breeze.

I love looking at the sea, but I don't particularly like to be in it. On a boat is fine, but actually being in the water is not for me. I'm not afraid of drowning, but more afraid of what is lurking in the water.

Since I can't swim, I am very cautious of the sea. However, I've never actually been on the open ocean, so I can't say for sure how I would feel about it.

I am afraid of the sea since I can't swim well and I'm afraid I'll drown, that's an experience I don't want again. I've almost drowned several times in a swimming pool (though, I don't know if that actually counts?), I am very sure it will be much worse when it's in the sea.

Actually I'm very much afraid of the sea. I just love to stay some distance away and watch how the waves are rolling on the shores. But I can't help dreaming of a Tsunami wave coming suddenly and taking me into the deep sea or a huge dangerous creature emerging out and swallow me. :(
So in brief I always wish to stay far away from the sea. :D

Not afraid, at all, but I have a lot of respect for the sea.

I panic any moment am close to water bodies because there are so many unknown things that are yet to be discovered and the fact that I get sea sick.

Yes, I am afraid of the sea whenever I see giant waves splashing. But, if I get a chance to be on a cruise, I'll do my best to overcome my fear and step on it.

I am scared of the sea. I can can't explain why I cannot stand large water bodies.

I think the sea is scary especially because I cannot swim in a pool much less a large body of water such as the sea.

I admire the sea and its energy. but the fear of it grows inside me with time, this didn't keep me away so far.

I love swimming and I am used to swimming on many water bodies. But in the case of sea, although I may not be able to stand its dynamic nature, I am not afraid of it
