Honey, Saint Louis, Missouri is about as far from an ocean as I am from winning a Grammy. You'd have better luck finding a mermaid in the Mississippi River than an ocean near St. Louis. So, unless the ocean decides to go on a road trip, I'd say it's pretty safe to assume that St. Louis is nowhere near the coast.

Saint-Louis is located at the German and Swiss borders. If moved to be next to the Ocean it would have the climate of Calais.

Oh, dude, the closest ocean beach to St. Louis, Missouri, is like super far away. You'd have to drive for hours and hours to reach the nearest one. So, like, pack some snacks and maybe a good playlist for the road trip, because you're in for a long haul if you want some ocean vibes from St. Louis.
