Taking your SCT to the beach

Hi all,

I've searched in the forums but couldn't find anything relevant.

I've bought an 8se recently. One of the dark sites I frequent is Robe, SA for surf fishing at night. Id also go to other beaches for the same purpose.
I am wondering if there are any potential issues taking the telescope to such places a couple of times a year? There will be sand and sea spray mixed with salt blown over the telescope and the mount depending on how much wind there is! Usually little at night.

Thoughts?

Thank you
Abdullah
