Is San Marino a beach or a country?

Hi, this is something I have read (which is part of jokes, and people making fun of other people, and this one involved a student from Italy):

Teacher:How long did u stay on the beach?? Student:San marino

------

Ok, my question, is San Marino supposed to be a beach or a country inside of Italy? Or is that country a beach?

Thx.
Additional Details
Or there is both a country called San Marino, and another beach somewhere else in Italy called San Marino as well?

The Most Seren Republic of San Marino is an independent State and it is not on the sea... It is in the Italian hinterland... So to be honest, I don't understand your wisecrack...

I even don't know any beach called San Marino...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Marino


----

The only thing that occur to me is that "marino" in Italian means "marine", so it has something to do with the beach...

You're welcome ;-)

San Marino does not have any beach since it's located among hills several miles from the coast. It is actually a small independent republic inside Italian territory. Doesn't have any border and it's actually part of Italy but completely (or almost) independent, and with a different taxation.

San Marino is a State!!!! It's situated on a mountain next to the sea. For the sea you have to go to Italy. Rimini is the zone most beautiful Italian coast. San Marino doesn't have any beach

We have something the same here in Spain... but it's said Andorra

it is because the country is LAND-LOCKED...
its a paradox
