"I can look a little left or right and miss the drilling platform and revel in $3 gas along with joe sixpack."

The only objection I have to offshore, well, make it two, is that in geologically active areas, drilling should not be allowed. The casings are going to crack, sooner or later, and cause a spill.

In tourist areas especially, something needs to be done to control the dumping. A big problem on Texas beaches is the trash that gets washed up, much of it from the rigs. Not all, ships contribute a certain amount also. But the rigs are bad about it.
