    Maybe I’m misunderstanding this, but I grew up in cental NC and this is only partially true. If you were going to the coast, yeah you’d say “I’m going to the beach”, then probably specify which beach. But, if you were just referring to any other place farther inland, you would most likely use it’s actual name because there are a lot of cities and small towns in relatively close proximity, so you’d have a lot of ambiguity otherwise.

      I think it’s a bit more literal than that. They’re saying the names of towns and places have the word beach in them.

        Yup. Live in Kansas and a bunch of tiny towns have city as part of their name. Dodge City, Baldwin City, etc.
