What would that guy in the photo do when children sprinkle salty sea water over his laptop? Or when his battery runs out? Don't assume you will have wi-fi or electricity everywhere or silence and a place to focus when working where others holiday.

It depends on the beach, the season, and how far you are from your room, especially in places like Algarrobo, Chile, which offer coworking areas and are not as overwhelmingly expensive as some might think. But seriously, it's not always as pictured, at least not while working. However, it's totally fair on your breaks if you are working remotely in a nice place. I usually take my laptop outside during my breaks just to read some stuff or chat with family or friends.
