smell of the sea in a port

For those of you who live by the shore -- how far off from the shore would you expect to not be able to smell the sea?  Assuming calm air.

I tried Googling about sea smell and distance, but unsurprisingly most of it was those rare birds where you can smell it really far off.

I've got a port city and need to know whether the heroine can smell the sea all over it.

Update:  Cool stuff!  I think I've got it -- she may smell the sea, somewhat, all over the city, but the full effect will be noticable when she's dumped by the docks.
