Solution

During the daytime, the following phenomena occurs:
  1. The land heats up faster than sea, so warm air rises over the land during the day as it is warmed by the sun.
  2. This can create a sea breeze which is gentle breeze blowing into the land.
  3. So air blows towards us and does not go towards the sea during day time.
