Reply to comment by RededHaid in Why is Connecticut specifically the coast line so underdeveloped in respect to shopping, housing, and entertainment? by Teslatron2049

There's not much to it to begin with, just wondering where the attraction is, no waves, real beaches, its like living next to a bay.

I mean, you just elaborated why it's nice. Small beaches bring small crowds and lower wave activity means less erosion of what beaches to exist. It also lends itself to salt marshes and tidal rivers, which are great for those who like to watch wildlife.

People settled on the shoreline in CT (and continue buying summer homes here) because they DON'T want the Jersey shore.
