sea mist
Ocean's gray veil
Sea mist is fog or haze that forms over or near the ocean, often rolling inland along coastlines.
It occurs when warm air moves over cold water, creating a low-lying veil of moisture: The sea mist crept up the beach and obscured the cliffs.
Sea mist typically brings cooler temperatures and reduced visibility to coastal areas.
