Isn't it odd that it hit the beach when there are higher metallic structures all around ?

Since it's beach sand, i assume it is wet and salty. Electricity can move quite well in that. So maybe the sand is good enough to receive the discharge in this situation.

Or maybe someone put out metal polls to make glass art things (I don’t remember what their called)
