Ozone is among the ocean smells apparently but I don't know why that should be 
except perhaps the ultraviolet in the sun on that wide expanse of water. You 
will smell it where ultraviolet light is generated particularly those older 
carbon arc lamps. The mercury vapor lamps we used to use in British hospitals 
40 years ago also produced enough ozone to smell.

  I have heard it said that you can smell * ozone at the seaside. Is this 
actually ozone, or just * 
  ocean and related smells like seaweed etc?
