Solution

The answer to your question depends on which coast Tom is on. If Tom is on the west coast, the ocean would be to the west. If he is on the east coast, the ocean would be to the east. However, since Tom is watching the sunset (which sets in the west) and assuming he is facing the sunset, the ocean would be behind him. Therefore, the ocean would be in the east.
