{{Beach Episode}}s in WesternAnimation.
----
* The ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatiansTheSeries'' episode "Dalmatian Vacation Part 2: Cross-Country Calamity" partially takes place at the beach.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'' has "Beach Party Mummy" where the gang plays hooky due to a boring lesson on Egypt, deciding to go visit the real deal complete with having a beach party, finding an ancient tomb and giving Libby a permanent make-over, which resembles the Egyptian Queen Howzaboutislapya.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingChanAndTheChanClan'' episode 3 featured the kids having a relaxing day at the beach, until it was interrupted by a crook framing their Pop for a string of robberies. Luckily, they got to resume their fun once the case was wrapped up.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAntAndTheAardvark'' cartoon "Dune Bug". While the Ant is trying to have a nice time at the beach, the Aardvark shows up and starts trouble. The Aardvark must try to catch the Ant, while trying to stay away from the lifeguard who thinks he is a dog.
* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' D.W. and family went to the beach where she had to deal with her fear of octopuses in "D.W. All Wet".
** Years later, the kids would return to the beach to build the ultimate sand castle in "Castles in the Sky".
** Another episode, "The Shore Thing" revolves around David (Arthur's dad) taking the kids to the beach in an effort to prove to them the beach can be as fun as going to a theme park.
* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender''
** Season 3's "[[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheBeach The Beach]]" has its main plot follow antagonists Azula, Mai, Ty Lee, and Zuko relaxing on Ember Island, a popular resort island in the Fire Nation. While there's plenty of beach hijinks and fanservice to go around, the episode climaxes in a very dramatic scene that not only reveals the {{Freudian Excuse}}s for Mai, Ty Lee and Azula, but also serves a key role in Zuko's CharacterDevelopment and leads to him deciding to switch sides and join Aang's group episodes later. Speaking of, the protagonists also hanging out on a beach in a hidden cove in the B-plot, but are spotted by Fire Nation soldiers and have their first encounter with the mysterious assassin known as Combustion Man.
** The first part of the [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderSozinsCometPart1ThePhoenixKing "Sozin's Comet"]] multi-part GrandFinale also starts with brief scene the same beach. Sokka tries to get everyone to have a day off from training, which everyone is fine with... except Zuko, who angrily reveals that they don't have time to relax, because [[spoiler:Ozai is planning to not just conquer the Earth Kingdom, but wipe it out entirely]]. He's quickly called out for not mentioning such important information sooner.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'':
** There's an episode about surfing, but the surfing was left for the near end, since they were looking for the perfect waves. Bonus points go for Austin and his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlo2dtITMdI "Mystery Lifeguard" song]].
** "Legend of the Volcano Sisters" was also a Beach Episode.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheBeatles'' had two:
** In "Boys," the group's day at a southern California beach is disrupted by a movie studio staging a contest to find Mr. Hollywood.
-->'''Ringo:''' Would you like to be Mr. Hollywood, George?\\
'''George:''' Only if I can't be Mr. Liverpool.
** "From Me to You" pits George against beach bully Surf Wolf in a surfing duel.
* ''WesternAnimation/BeingIan'': The Kelley family go to the beach in "Bad Day at White Rock". While the rest of the clan engage in typical beachside shenanigans, Ian gets stranded on a sandbar in a ''Film/{{Castaway}}'' parody.
* ''WesternAnimation/Ben10'' does this in both series. In the first, they're children, and it's summer vacation, so there's nothing surprising about them going to the beach (and a water park). In ''[[TimeSkip Alien Force]]'', they're teenagers, and it's apparently later in the year (as everyone's normal day clothes have long sleeves, a jacket, etc), but they still find a reason to go to a lake and splash around for five minutes. Suprisingly enough however, it only lasts a few seconds; no episode is ''entirely'' about them being at the beach. ''Con of Rath'' subverts the trope by having the three protagonists ''about'' to go to the beach... then an alien ambassador comes to ask them for a mission. According to Gwen, this situation happens quite often when they try to go to the beach.
* ''WesternAnimation/BigCityGreens'': The episode “Shark Objects” is about the Greens spending a day at the beach. Cricket tries to pull a classic [[SharkFinOfDoom shark fin prank]] while Nancy tries to say no, Tilly ends up burying Bill in sand, and Alice ends up getting into a fight with a seagull, which lands them in “beach jail.”
* ''WesternAnimation/BlackDynamite'' has one in the second episode of Season 2, involving Richard Nixon developing various schemes to get the Black Community onto the beach... [[BlackComedy so he can kill them all]].
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}'': The aptly titled episode "The Beach" has the Heelers going to the seaside, with Bluey deciding to follow her mom after the latter takes a long stroll across the shore.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Breadwinners}}'': "Beach Day of Horror".
* ''WesternAnimation/ButchCassidyAndTheSundanceKids'': "The Pearl Caper" has Merilee and Butch go to the beach and switch into swim wear. "The Super Sub" does the same for Steffy and Wally.
* Although several ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' episodes involve beaches, the one true beach episode is "Shell Shocked" because Gadget is wearing a swimsuit. A one-piece swimsuit with attached skirt, but a swimsuit.
* The WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts had "Hawaiian Holiday", featuring Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy at the beach in Hawaii. It's mostly dominated by Goofy's failed attempt to surf.
* "''WesternAnimation/DanVs'' the Beach" has the title character attempting to close down the beach after a crowd of drivers park their cars at his apartment.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'''s first made-for-TV movie has an extended opening with a different theme song, showing the characters dancing (well, except [[TheSnarkKnight Daria]]) on a beach. It even opens with [[{{Fanservice}} a close up on a bikini-clad butt shaking for the camera]]... [[BaitAndSwitch which turns out to belong to]] a speedo-clad [[HippieTeacher Mr. O'Neill]]. However, the actual film has nothing to do with a beach, despite being set in the summer. [[DumbJock Kevin]] and [[DumbBlonde Brittany]] do have a Pool Subplot that's not particularly fanservicey.
* ''WesternAnimation/DastardlyAndMuttleyInTheirFlyingMachines'': Two Wing Dings blackouts take place at the beach. The first has Dastardly asking Zilly to blow up a beach ball. He does...by putting a lit stick of dynamite in it. The second has Zilly telling Klunk that he can hear the ocean when holding a sea conch to his ear. When Klunk does it, ocean water pours out of his other ear.
* When the heroes of ''WesternAnimation/{{Dinosaucers}}'' are prevented from battling their arch-enemies (the Tyrannos) because of a holiday both factions hold sacred on their homeworld, their human allies decide to take the opportunity to show the dinos how to have fun in the sun. Hilarity ensues when Dinosaucers and Tyrannos end up on the ''same beach''.
* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'': "Hot Buttered Eds", though it doesn't take place on a beach. Eddy attempts to get his "spot" at the swimming hole back from Kevin, and Edd freaks out from a lack of sunscreen.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Edward}}'' has at least one episode set on a beach. In one, his wife catches him [[MaleGaze staring]] at a buxom woman in a two-piece zebra-striped bikini. She then reacts accordingly.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents'' had a few, including one where Timmy tries to become the strongest person on the beach to impress his love life, and one where Timmy and his parents come to the beach for a vacation but decide they are lost.
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' episode "The Deep South" is primarily a beach episode, and the movie ''[[Recap/FuturamaM1BendersBigScore Bender's Big Score]]'' features a prominent scene with everyone at a nude beach (also highlighted in the DVD packaging).
* The ''WesternAnimation/GravedaleHigh'' episode "Do the Rad Thing" is to be considered as one. It's about Gill missing school and eventually dropping out to practice for a surfing contest with his human idol, Kahuna Bob. Also, the class spends the night at the beach trying to persuade Gill to come back to the school.
* Even ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' has one ("Summer Love", a.k.a. Beach Story). It helped to develop Arnold and Helga's UST and throw some {{Fanservice}} by the GirlOfTheWeek, [[MeaningfulName appropriately named]] Summer.
* The ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' short "Mickey's Rival Returns" primarily takes place at a beach, and the plot consists of Mickey challenging his old rival Mortimer to a game of volleyball; with the winner having to take Minnie out on a Summer luau date.
* ''WesternAnimation/JeanLucAndDondoozat'' has one. In the episode, Jean-Luc steals a kid's ball and makes him cry. When he and Dondoozat are confronted about it by the kid and his [[PapaWolf big, angry father]], Dondoozat tells Jean-Luc to give the ball back. Jean-Luc just throws the ball into the sea, prompting the boys father to [[MisplacedRetribution beat up Dondoozat]].
* ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'' has "Heat Blanket Jimmy", where Jimmy decides to throw a beach party to beat a HeatWave. However, [[CrapsackWorld Miseryville]]'s beaches aren't much better than the town itself, and when [[{{Satan}} Lucius]] finds out what Jimmy's up to, he tries to ruin it.
* Episode 80 of ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'' has the main four, Pretty and Eugly go to the beach and play beach volleyball, while Stumpy uses steroids to cheat at the game, and Pretty tries various methods to attract Mr. Cat (both with [[EpicFail the usual results]].
* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'': "Hank's on Board" centers around a fishing trip by the ocean. While the A-plot is about Hank and his friends going out at sea and [[spoiler:getting stuck in the water without a ladder to get back on their boat,]] the B-plot involves Peggy and Bobby by the shore looking for things with a metal detector.
* Unlike [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender its predecessor]], ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' had no beach themed episodes. In an early episode, however, the characters did swim in an indoor pool. Apparently fashions have become more conservative in the past several decades as the boys wear {{Old Timey Bathing Suit}}s instead of being shirtless.
* ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop2012'': "Pump Up the Panda", Blythe and the pets go to Seal Beach Bay and Blythe tells them to show off their new beachwear and to look good doing it.
* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/MaryKateAndAshleyInAction'', unusually set on a beach, had secret agents Misty and Amber relaxing at a beachside resort after a long day of surfing.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicSchoolBus'': "Gets Eaten" and "Goes to Mussel Beach".
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Mamemo}}'': This series' episode was appropriately named "The Beach", co-starring Mamemo's cow friend as her beach towel.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Milo}}'' had three.
** In "Milo Goes to the Beach", Milo and his family visit the beach and Milo learns about sun protection and chases a kite.
** In "Seashells and Sea Creatures", Milo and his class take a school trip to the beach and learn about sea creatures and water safety.
** In "The Sand Castle", Milo, his father George, and a boy named Luke, build a big sandcastle.
* ''WesternAnimation/MonSuno'' does this in episode 16 by having the protagonists taking a break going to the beach; surprisingly enough, the fanservice is quite limited for this episode; we only get one scene of them in swimsuits, one of the male protagonists ([[TheHeart Beyal]]) retains his clothes (granted, him being a monk, it's not that surprising), and the only girl of the team wears a rather sober swimsuit. In addition, the episode focus on the beach part only for a few minutes before going back to the plot.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMrMenShow'' has the episodes "Beach," "Seashore," and "Sand & Surf." Since the characters are [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal Accessory-Wearing]] {{Living Polyhedron}}s, the characters are always wearing their normal clothes in these episodes (though the ones who wear shoes sometimes go barefoot instead).
* ''WesternAnimation/NiHaoKaiLan'': In "Beach Day", the gang goes to have some fun at the beach. Tolee gets upset, however, when a wave knocks down his sand castle, causing him to [[AgitatedItemStomping angrily stomp on the sand castle his friends were building]].
* ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes'' had one such episode, [[LampshadeHanging lampshadingly]] called...[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Beach Episode.]] It even featured a one-note ShoutOut to ''Series/{{Baywatch}}''.
* Amusingly teased and {{averted|Trope}} in a late second season episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', which had to be condensed to fit the narrative after the third season was [[ScrewedByTheNetwork reduced to three 44-minute specials]]. Eda asks Luz if she would rather have a beach day than go on TheHeist that the episode focuses on instead, to which Luz retorts, "Maybe if we had ''time'' for [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall 20 more adventures]], but ''[[BitingTheHandHumor we don't]]''!"
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' has a few:
** In "Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror", the boys ''make'' a beach in their backyard.
** In "Voyage to the Bottom of Buford", they go to a genuine beach to find a lost goldfish.
** In "Atlantis", the boys spend a day at the beach searching for the lost city of Atlantis.
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePinkPanther'': "Come on In, the Water's Pink", where the Pink Panther visits Bicep Beach and makes good use of a whole bag of self-inflating items to upstage the strongest man on the beach.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocoyo}}'' has "Fetch Loula Fetch", "Going to the Beach", "Are We There Yet?", and "Christmas...at the Beach?".
* ''WesternAnimation/PopeyeAndSon'' episode "Surf Movie" is a beach episode alongside filming a movie.
** Several classic Popeye cartoons take place at a beach, most notably a cartoon where a beefy lifeguard is bored by all the female eye candy and suddenly goes into SomethingElseAlsoRises upon seeing Olive Oyl.
* The ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'' episode "The Tide is High", where the kids play and the beach, and then try to figure out why the ocean looks different from when they last went there.
* ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'': In "Sand in Your Navel", Rocko tries to relax by going to the beach with his dog Spunky.
* ''WesternAnimation/RockyKwaterner'': In episode 49, "The Big Splash", after the local lake is cleaned of algae, the town has done some work on the park so as to bring "the beach to town." The plot mainly focusses on Theo and Luna teaching Rocky to swim so he can take on [[TheBully Karl]] in a contest.
* ''WesternAnimation/RosiesRules'': In "Rosie's Seashell Museum," Rosie and her family go to the beach, and Rosie wants to make a trade for a purple seashell that Crystal has.
* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' has Tommy's family going to the beach, where Tommy and Chuckie attempt to release a bowl of "Sea Monkeys" back into the sea.
* ''WesternAnimation/SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries'' subverts this. Fed up with winter, Sabrina and Chloe cast a spell to go to the beach for an hour. They do...but [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting as mermaids!]]
* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' has a few episodes that take place at the beach.
** "Ripped Pants" centered around [=SpongeBob=] ripping his pants to amuse the other beach-goers.
** "Sponge Guard on Duty" had Spongebob trying to be a life guard despite not being a good swimmer.
** "Sand Castles in the Sand" had a sandcastle-building rivalry between Spongebob and Patrick escalate to a fight with [[MundaneMadeAwesome sand castle mecha.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' is set in the seaside town of Beach City, but it still has an actual beach episode in "Beach Party", where Steven throws a barbecue to patch things up between the Crystal Gems and the owner of the local pizza joint. The Crystal Gems even get beach outfits!
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSylvesterAndTweetyMysteries'' had this in the episode "Hawaii 33-1/3", where Granny, Sylvester, Hector, and Tweety investigated tiki thefts at a Hawaiian beach. There are even some curvaceous women in bikinis.
* ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' had a few of these, most notably ''Salt Water Tabby'' and ''Muscle Beach Tom'', as well as the opening of ''The Cat and the Mermouse''.
* The later series ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTales'' had an episode where its ThreeShorts were all beach-themed (the three shorts of any given episode usually stayed within a single theme).
* Done in ''WesternAnimation/{{Trollz}}'', with three of them making up the last story arc.
* ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'' has an episode that features the girls in their swimsuits by a lake in season 2. Again in season 5. There's also a 3-D music video called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kmt_g35dmZE Mambochiwambo]]" that filled the role, more or less.
* The spinoff ''WesternAnimation/WorldOfWinx'' also has a beach episode where the Winx [[note]] Minus Bloom who had been fired by Ace[[/note]] are in Santa Monica searching for new talents.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{WITCH}}'' has one in the second season episode "I is for Illusion" where the girls go to the beach to relax on summer vacation, though unlike other examples it's anything but {{filler}} as TheChessmaster Nerissa attempted to sow seeds of discontent amongst the girls, and very nearly managed to steal Will's Heart of Kandrakar. In the very next episode, "J is for Jewel," Irma is still at the beach with her family as they decided to stay a few extra days while the other girls leave, which leads to a big problem when she's needed to help fight and is separated from the rest of the girls.
* The ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010'' episode "Infiltrator" includes a Beach Opening Scene, complete with loving shots of Miss Martian in a two-piece swimsuit and Aqualad, Robin, and Superboy shirtless.

* ''WesternAnimation/BeingIan'': The Kelley family go to the beach in "Bad Day at White Rock". While the rest of the clan engage in typical beachside shenanigans, Ian gets stranded on a sandbar in a ''Film/{{Castaway}}'' parody.
* ''WesternAnimation/Ben10'' does this in both series. In the first, they're children, and it's summer vacation, so there's nothing surprising about them going to the beach (and a water park). In ''[[TimeSkip Alien Force]]'', they're teenagers, and it's apparently later in the year (as everyone's normal day clothes have long sleeves, a jacket, etc), but they still find a reason to go to a lake and splash around for five minutes. Suprisingly enough however, it only lasts a few seconds; no episode is ''entirely'' about them being at the beach. ''Con of Rath'' subverts the trope by having the three protagonists ''about'' to go to the beach... then an alien ambassador comes to ask them for a mission. According to Gwen, this situation happens quite often when they try to go to the beach.
* ''WesternAnimation/BigCityGreens'': The episode “Shark Objects” is about the Greens spending a day at the beach. Cricket tries to pull a classic [[SharkFinOfDoom shark fin prank]] while Nancy tries to say no, Tilly ends up burying Bill in sand, and Alice ends up getting into a fight with a seagull, which lands them in “beach jail.”
* ''WesternAnimation/BlackDynamite'' has one in the second episode of Season 2, involving Richard Nixon developing various schemes to get the Black Community onto the beach... [[BlackComedy so he can kill them all]].
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}'': The aptly titled episode "The Beach" has the Heelers going to the seaside, with Bluey deciding to follow her mom after the latter takes a long stroll across the shore.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Breadwinners}}'': "Beach Day of Horror".
* ''WesternAnimation/ButchCassidyAndTheSundanceKids'': "The Pearl Caper" has Merilee and Butch go to the beach and switch into swim wear. "The Super Sub" does the same for Steffy and Wally.
* Although several ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' episodes involve beaches, the one true beach episode is "Shell Shocked" because Gadget is wearing a swimsuit. A one-piece swimsuit with attached skirt, but a swimsuit.
* The WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts had "Hawaiian Holiday", featuring Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy at the beach in Hawaii. It's mostly dominated by Goofy's failed attempt to surf.
* "''WesternAnimation/DanVs'' the Beach" has the title character attempting to close down the beach after a crowd of drivers park their cars at his apartment.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'''s first made-for-TV movie has an extended opening with a different theme song, showing the characters dancing (well, except [[TheSnarkKnight Daria]]) on a beach. It even opens with [[{{Fanservice}} a close up on a bikini-clad butt shaking for the camera]]... [[BaitAndSwitch which turns out to belong to]] a speedo-clad [[HippieTeacher Mr. O'Neill]]. However, the actual film has nothing to do with a beach, despite being set in the summer. [[DumbJock Kevin]] and [[DumbBlonde Brittany]] do have a Pool Subplot that's not particularly fanservicey.
* ''WesternAnimation/DastardlyAndMuttleyInTheirFlyingMachines'': Two Wing Dings blackouts take place at the beach. The first has Dastardly asking Zilly to blow up a beach ball. He does...by putting a lit stick of dynamite in it. The second has Zilly telling Klunk that he can hear the ocean when holding a sea conch to his ear. When Klunk does it, ocean water pours out of his other ear.
* When the heroes of ''WesternAnimation/{{Dinosaucers}}'' are prevented from battling their arch-enemies (the Tyrannos) because of a holiday both factions hold sacred on their homeworld, their human allies decide to take the opportunity to show the dinos how to have fun in the sun. Hilarity ensues when Dinosaucers and Tyrannos end up on the ''same beach''.
* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'': "Hot Buttered Eds", though it doesn't take place on a beach. Eddy attempts to get his "spot" at the swimming hole back from Kevin, and Edd freaks out from a lack of sunscreen.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Edward}}'' has at least one episode set on a beach. In one, his wife catches him [[MaleGaze staring]] at a buxom woman in a two-piece zebra-striped bikini. She then reacts accordingly.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents'' had a few, including one where Timmy tries to become the strongest person on the beach to impress his love life, and one where Timmy and his parents come to the beach for a vacation but decide they are lost.
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' episode "The Deep South" is primarily a beach episode, and the movie ''[[Recap/FuturamaM1BendersBigScore Bender's Big Score]]'' features a prominent scene with everyone at a nude beach (also highlighted in the DVD packaging).
* The ''WesternAnimation/GravedaleHigh'' episode "Do the Rad Thing" is to be considered as one. It's about Gill missing school and eventually dropping out to practice for a surfing contest with his human idol, Kahuna Bob. Also, the class spends the night at the beach trying to persuade Gill to come back to the school.
* Even ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' has one ("Summer Love", a.k.a. Beach Story). It helped to develop Arnold and Helga's UST and throw some {{Fanservice}} by the GirlOfTheWeek, [[MeaningfulName appropriately named]] Summer.
* The ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' short "Mickey's Rival Returns" primarily takes place at a beach, and the plot consists of Mickey challenging his old rival Mortimer to a game of volleyball; with the winner having to take Minnie out on a Summer luau date.
* ''WesternAnimation/JeanLucAndDondoozat'' has one. In the episode, Jean-Luc steals a kid's ball and makes him cry. When he and Dondoozat are confronted about it by the kid and his [[PapaWolf big, angry father]], Dondoozat tells Jean-Luc to give the ball back. Jean-Luc just throws the ball into the sea, prompting the boys father to [[MisplacedRetribution beat up Dondoozat]].
* ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'' has "Heat Blanket Jimmy", where Jimmy decides to throw a beach party to beat a HeatWave. However, [[CrapsackWorld Miseryville]]'s beaches aren't much better than the town itself, and when [[{{Satan}} Lucius]] finds out what Jimmy's up to, he tries to ruin it.
* Episode 80 of ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'' has the main four, Pretty and Eugly go to the beach and play beach volleyball, while Stumpy uses steroids to cheat at the game, and Pretty tries various methods to attract Mr. Cat (both with [[EpicFail the usual results]].
* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'': "Hank's on Board" centers around a fishing trip by the ocean. While the A-plot is about Hank and his friends going out at sea and [[spoiler:getting stuck in the water without a ladder to get back on their boat,]] the B-plot involves Peggy and Bobby by the shore looking for things with a metal detector.
* Unlike [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender its predecessor]], ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' had no beach themed episodes. In an early episode, however, the characters did swim in an indoor pool. Apparently fashions have become more conservative in the past several decades as the boys wear {{Old Timey Bathing Suit}}s instead of being shirtless.

** In "Milo Goes to the Beach", Milo and his family visit the beach and Milo learns about sun protection and chases a kite.
** In "Seashells and Sea Creatures", Milo and his class take a school trip to the beach and learn about sea creatures and water safety.
** In "The Sand Castle", Milo, his father George, and a boy named Luke, build a big sandcastle.
* ''WesternAnimation/MonSuno'' does this in episode 16 by having the protagonists taking a break going to the beach; surprisingly enough, the fanservice is quite limited for this episode; we only get one scene of them in swimsuits, one of the male protagonists ([[TheHeart Beyal]]) retains his clothes (granted, him being a monk, it's not that surprising), and the only girl of the team wears a rather sober swimsuit. In addition, the episode focus on the beach part only for a few minutes before going back to the plot.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMrMenShow'' has the episodes "Beach," "Seashore," and "Sand & Surf." Since the characters are [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal Accessory-Wearing]] {{Living Polyhedron}}s, the characters are always wearing their normal clothes in these episodes (though the ones who wear shoes sometimes go barefoot instead).
* ''WesternAnimation/NiHaoKaiLan'': In "Beach Day", the gang goes to have some fun at the beach. Tolee gets upset, however, when a wave knocks down his sand castle, causing him to [[AgitatedItemStomping angrily stomp on the sand castle his friends were building]].
* ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes'' had one such episode, [[LampshadeHanging lampshadingly]] called...[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Beach Episode.]] It even featured a one-note ShoutOut to ''Series/{{Baywatch}}''.
* Amusingly teased and {{averted|Trope}} in a late second season episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', which had to be condensed to fit the narrative after the third season was [[ScrewedByTheNetwork reduced to three 44-minute specials]]. Eda asks Luz if she would rather have a beach day than go on TheHeist that the episode focuses on instead, to which Luz retorts, "Maybe if we had ''time'' for [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall 20 more adventures]], but ''[[BitingTheHandHumor we don't]]''!"
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' has a few:
** In "Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror", the boys ''make'' a beach in their backyard.
** In "Voyage to the Bottom of Buford", they go to a genuine beach to find a lost goldfish.
** In "Atlantis", the boys spend a day at the beach searching for the lost city of Atlantis.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocoyo}}'' has "Fetch Loula Fetch", "Going to the Beach", "Are We There Yet?", and "Christmas...at the Beach?".
* ''WesternAnimation/PopeyeAndSon'' episode "Surf Movie" is a beach episode alongside filming a movie.
** Several classic Popeye cartoons take place at a beach, most notably a cartoon where a beefy lifeguard is bored by all the female eye candy and suddenly goes into SomethingElseAlsoRises upon seeing Olive Oyl.
* The ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'' episode "The Tide is High", where the kids play and the beach, and then try to figure out why the ocean looks different from when they last went there.

* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' has Tommy's family going to the beach, where Tommy and Chuckie attempt to release a bowl of "Sea Monkeys" back into the sea.
* ''WesternAnimation/SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries'' subverts this. Fed up with winter, Sabrina and Chloe cast a spell to go to the beach for an hour. They do...but [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting as mermaids!]]
* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' has a few episodes that take place at the beach.
** "Ripped Pants" centered around [=SpongeBob=] ripping his pants to amuse the other beach-goers.
** "Sponge Guard on Duty" had Spongebob trying to be a life guard despite not being a good swimmer.
** "Sand Castles in the Sand" had a sandcastle-building rivalry between Spongebob and Patrick escalate to a fight with [[MundaneMadeAwesome sand castle mecha.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' is set in the seaside town of Beach City, but it still has an actual beach episode in "Beach Party", where Steven throws a barbecue to patch things up between the Crystal Gems and the owner of the local pizza joint. The Crystal Gems even get beach outfits!
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSylvesterAndTweetyMysteries'' had this in the episode "Hawaii 33-1/3", where Granny, Sylvester, Hector, and Tweety investigated tiki thefts at a Hawaiian beach. There are even some curvaceous women in bikinis.

* The later series ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTales'' had an episode where its ThreeShorts were all beach-themed (the three shorts of any given episode usually stayed within a single theme).
* Done in ''WesternAnimation/{{Trollz}}'', with three of them making up the last story arc.
* ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'' has an episode that features the girls in their swimsuits by a lake in season 2. Again in season 5. There's also a 3-D music video called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kmt_g35dmZE Mambochiwambo]]" that filled the role, more or less.
* The spinoff ''WesternAnimation/WorldOfWinx'' also has a beach episode where the Winx [[note]] Minus Bloom who had been fired by Ace[[/note]] are in Santa Monica searching for new talents.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{WITCH}}'' has one in the second season episode "I is for Illusion" where the girls go to the beach to relax on summer vacation, though unlike other examples it's anything but {{filler}} as TheChessmaster Nerissa attempted to sow seeds of discontent amongst the girls, and very nearly managed to steal Will's Heart of Kandrakar. In the very next episode, "J is for Jewel," Irma is still at the beach with her family as they decided to stay a few extra days while the other girls leave, which leads to a big problem when she's needed to help fight and is separated from the rest of the girls.
