Am I lucid dreaming?

(This is my first time posting on here, but I tried googling my situation and it didn't give me a full straightforward answer.)

So, I have these weird dreams where it's kind of in the same 4 places, a beach, a mall, a school, and a neighborhood that leads to nowhere. Last night I dreamt of me trying my hardest to get back on the sand but the waves from the ocean kept pulling me back and once I gave up, I turned into a sea monster and traveled the ocean for thousands of years. I had another dream after that, that my mom dropped me off at a huge factory looking building and it had an area where it was dark and the wall was black and padded and a group of people my age had different superpowers. My superpower was I could control the wind and fly. After I saw them a bunch of swat team people came charging at us, trying to get us for having superpowers or something. And I panicked and flew into the padded wall, but it opened up like a maze where I was flying and making sharp turns into these pitch-black rooms, and it felt like that one scene from interstellar where murphs dad goes into a black hole and gets stuck in another dimension. Then I woke up.

Anyways, in almost all of my dreams I feel like I'm not fully aware that I'm dreaming, it feels almost like a memory but I can control my movements fully and talk to people but I can't control where I am or the atmosphere I'm in. it feels like I'm in a movie where I know nothing about the plot, if that makes sense. But does this count as lucid dreaming?
