Everyone loves a beach day, right? Sandcastles, sunbathing, surfing—it’s all picture-perfect until you encounter a seagull eyeing your snacks or sand gets all up in your business.

Just when you thought the beach was all sun, fun, and relaxation, these photos prove otherwise. From hilarious mishaps to unexpected photobombs, join us as we explore snapshots that capture some of the most unpredictable and outlandish beach antics we’ve ever seen. Prepare to have a good laugh!
Not a Submarine
There are only two things you need for a great day at the beach—sunshine and a sense of humor. Luckily, it seems like this guy has both in abundance because he’s making the most of what appears to be a terrible situation.
Image via Imgur
While most of us would be freaking out that our car is submerged in the ocean, this man is all smiles and thumbs up. That’s the face of a guy with an excellent car insurance plan.
Strike a Pose
No beach day is complete without a photoshoot. While getting 11 girls to look at the camera, eyes open, and striking a perfect pose is no easy feat, these girls nailed it—and they got an extra surprise in the background.
Image via Imgur
We’re seriously impressed with the guy in the ocean behind them, who not only photobombed with top-notch timing, but perfectly mimicked their pose. These ladies were probably less than thrilled that he ruined their group shot, though.
Peek-A-Boo
Kids have a way of turning the most mundane things into a mischievous adventure. They have the whole beach to explore, sandcastles to make and waves to splash in.
Image via Imgur
Instead, though, they’re choosing to take a peek at someone who’s clearly trying to have a peaceful moment rinsing off all that pesky sand. Hey—at least we can give props to their parents for making sure they’re totally protected from the sun.
You’re Under Where?
Tanning at the beach is practically a science. It requires a strict routine of sunscreen reapplication and regular rotation to avoid those dreaded uneven tan lines. This person clearly wanted to keep their face covered from the sun, but at what cost?
Image via Imgur
With their head awkwardly shoved through a pair of shorts, they may have protected their face, but they’re definitely making a unique fashion statement. Who knew that tan lines could drive us to such innovative—or should we say desperate—measures?
Bonnie and Clyde
Nothing to see here, just another pair of lovebirds enjoying a romantic stroll along the beach… or is it? Look a little closer and you’ll notice their unique fashion accessory—matching ankle monitors.
Image via Imgur
Who says you can’t add a bit of flair to your beach attire? Perhaps their love story is just a tad more adventurous than most. After all, nothing says “together forever” quite like synchronized steps, complete with GPS tracking.
Digging a Hole
Sometimes you have to get a little creative to stay out of that blaring sun. There’s a very thin line between ingenuity and insanity, and we think that this group of innovative beachgoers is somewhere right on that line.
Image via Imgur
These lads decided to dig themselves a man cave so they could sit and enjoy a refreshing drink in the sand, but their umbrella had other ideas. At least they won’t get sunburnt under there.
Ice Cream Thief
Nothing beats a cold and refreshing ice cream by the sea—that is, only if you can enjoy it before the birds beat you to it. No food is safe from seagulls’ crafty beaks, and they’ll seize any opportunity to ruin your day in their ruthless pursuit of food.
Image via Imgur
This one even got caught on camera and didn’t seem phased! So next time you bring a picnic bag to the beach, make sure you keep it covered. You never know which pesky bird pirates might try and sneak a bite.
Mud Monster
Some beaches promise miles of soft white sand, others are lined with pebbles and rocks, and then there are those with an added extra treat—mud pools. They’re a natural wonder and a fun activity all in one.
Image via Imgur
After all, why settle for a simple tan when you can turn heads and have a bit of fun with some muddy mischief instead, like this guy? It’s a perfect way to stay cool and scare your fellow beachgoers all at the same time.
Horsing Around
Of all the things one might expect to see on the beach, we’d like to assume that this scene is not one of them. We would do anything to find out the real story here.
Image via Imgur
Whether it was a prank gone wrong or an epic costume party that was abruptly shut down, it seems the local sheriff didn’t see the funny side. This hoofed hooligan’s antics landed them in hot water, and while it’s probably a serious situation, we can’t help but laugh.
No Escape
Anyone who’s watched Finding Nemo will know that the seagulls are portrayed as greedy, single-minded eating machines. It turns out that Disney was totally right because these flying maniacs have one mission in mind—to terrorize as many beachgoers as possible.
Image via Imgur
This guy was minding his own business, burying himself in the sand, when a herd of sneaky seagulls descended upon him and did their business. It doesn’t get more unlucky than this.
Sucker for Trouble
The ocean is a vast and mysterious place, brimming with creatures that could make anyone’s hair stand on end. Most of us will never encounter them in real life, but this brave soul is living out what many would consider their worst nightmare—an unexpected encounter with a sneaky, eight-armed hitchhiker.
Image via Imgur
While the rest of us worry about jellyfish or stepping on something slimy, this guy’s handling a full-blown octopus situation. Someone help him get that thing off his back and back into the ocean where it belongs!
Blending In
Some people have a natural talent for catching the sun, turning an impressive shade of bronze with ease. Then there’s the perpetually pale, who can spend hours sunbathing and barely develop a freckle.
Image via Imgur
Case in point: this beachgoer taking a nap, who is so fair-skinned that they’re practically camouflaged with the sand. We only hope they don’t forget about her when it’s time to pack up or she’ll be an unfortunate shade of lobster by the morning!
Comfy?
Sitting in the sun all day is enough to make anyone tired. When nap time comes around, it can be hard to find the right position—after all, sand is not the comfiest surface to sleep on.
Image via Imgur
These two have taken beach relaxation to new levels, quite literally, with one acting as a human cushion for the other. We have no idea how they ended up in this position, and at this point, we’re too afraid to ask. Though we have to admit, it does look pretty comfy—for the one on the top, at least.
Picture Purr-fect
Dogs famously love the beach, so it’s not unusual to see a canine friend splashing in the sea or digging a hole in the sand. With cats, though, it’s a whole other story. They typically prefer a cozy spot far from the chaos of waves and seagulls.
Image via Imgur
How this stylish-looking kitty ended up on the shore or why it’s joining a dance session remains a mystery to us, but no one can deny that the resulting picture is totally adorable.
Locked In
When you’re itching for a swim in the ocean but trusting strangers with your stuff feels risky, you have to get creative. What’s one way to avoid your belongings getting stolen? A flip-flop lock!
Image via Imgur
This bold beach-goer decided to play it safe and lock up their precious sandals to a bike rack. Sure, it might be overkill, but hey, at least those flip-flops aren’t taking a walk without their owner.
Beaching All Alone
There’s something oddly amusing about gearing up for a perfect beach day, only to arrive and find the place completely deserted. No crowds to navigate, no struggle for the best spot, and certainly no lines at the ice cream stand, because there’s no stand!
Image by Gabrielle Sousa/MJ
We’re just wondering if everyone else got some warning about a shark that she somehow missed. Oh well, for now, she gets to enjoy the empty beach all to herself. Lucky her!
Pooch PDA
Taking a beach photo is always a gamble because you just never know what you’ll capture in the background. This unlucky snap features a particularly memorable photobomb, in the form of two dogs in a rather—shall we say—compromising situation.
Image via Imgur
While she’s all smiles, blissfully unaware, those pooches are stealing the spotlight with their very public display of affection. Get a room, you two!
Day at the Lake
There’s nothing quite as exciting as a beach day—except when you live in a landlocked state. Then, every beach day is actually just a lake day disguised to give you the same satisfaction.
Image by Gabrielle Sousa/MJ
Hey, sometimes, you’ve got to work with what you’ve got. Though her friends in the back are making the most of it, we’re not sure she’s enjoying the lake as much.
Bikini Bodies
As the saying goes, every body is indeed a bikini body, and on the beach, there’s one simple rule—wear whatever makes you feel fabulous! These two gents are living proof that confidence is the best accessory.
Image via Imgur
They turned the beach into their catwalk, sporting bikinis and looking seriously stylish while doing it. So take a cue from these trendsetters: strut your stuff and own your beachwear, no matter what it is.
Moo-ve Over
Everyone deserves a relaxing sunbathing session on the beach, and if this picture is anything to go by, it’s a luxury that’s not limited to human folk. The beach is often full of surprises, but this one takes the cake—or should we say the grass?
Image via Imgur
We aren’t sure how a cow has made its way onto the sand, though perhaps the more perplexing part is that everyone else around this bovine pal looks completely unbothered by its presence.
Iguana Go to the Beach
On most beaches, spotting an energetic dog dashing through the sand is usually the most exotic animal you’d find. But over in the Bahamas, the locals have a bit more… reptilian flair. Their beaches aren’t filled with dogs—they have iguanas.
Image via Imgur
This sunbather seems to have found the secret to making new friends, by feeding the family of iguanas. Much better than a flock of seagulls, if you ask us.
Head in the Sand
The beach is the perfect backdrop to try out your sports skills, headstands, or those ambitious tricks that seem like a great idea, right up until they’re not. This sandy acrobat’s attempt at a cartwheel took an unexpected turn, resulting in a spectacular face-plant instead of a graceful landing.
Image via Imgur
Kudos to him for trying, though—he’s definitely the poster child for giving it your all, even if sometimes you end up eating sand.
Warning Sign
It’s always tempting to soak up the sunshine and work on that perfect tan all day long, but any good sun-worshipper should know that safety always comes first. Even if you’re lathered in SPF, there comes a time when you should seek shade to prevent what we’d like to call the “lobster look”.
Image via Imgur
This sign said it better than we ever could. Prolonged sun exposure can turn a relaxing beach day into a painful experience. There’s no need to frazzle yourselves til you’re bright red, folks! And we mean it—no tea, no shade.
Beach Wedding
There’s nothing more idyllic than a beach wedding—the sun, the sand, the gentle sound of waves while you tie the knot. It’s the day of most little girls’ dreams. But this couple’s stunning seaside ceremony is destined to be remembered for more than just their vows.
Image via Imgur
Just as they exchanged rings, a beachgoer wearing next to nothing photobombed their picture. Was it a naturist beach or just an unfortunate coincidence? This photo is one for the wedding album, just not for the reason the newlyweds may have hoped.
Zebra Crossing
We’ve seen all kinds of beach outfits over the years, from barely-there bikinis to full-body getups, but nothing quite like this. Sporting what looks like a full-body zebra-striped morph suit, this beachgoer brings new meaning to the phrase “dressed to impress”.
Image via Imgur
Whether they’re protecting every inch from those harmful UV rays or just making a bold fashion statement, one thing’s for sure—they’re totally rocking it.
Sink or Float
When we said we wanted a Coke Float at the beach, this is not what we had in mind! We have to applaud this man’s creativity and innovation in fashioning a floatation device out of empty soda bottles.
Image via Imgur
Do we think he made that at home in advance or thought of it on the spot? Either way, we’d love to know if his makeshift life ring actually works—that’s one thrifty way to stay above the water.
No Hat, No Problem
Many people forget that protecting your scalp is just as important as shielding the rest of your body from the sun’s harsh UV rays. This beach fashion pioneer may have forgotten a cap, but he took creative measures to the next level by crafting a hat out of a watermelon rind.
Image via Imgur
It’s low-key genius—not only does it offer sun protection, but it’s also eco-friendly and keeps you cool in more ways than one. Apart from being a little sticky, we can totally see this trend catching on. Move over, straw hats—watermelon helmets are the new beach chic.
Chill Level 100
There’s nothing more soothing than watching the sunset or the waves crashing on the shore, and while most of us would be happy with a towel on the sand or standing with our toes in the water, this guy has a front row seat in a very different way.
Image via Imgur
He’s taking beach relaxation to a whole new level—everyone else’s beach chairs simply pale in comparison.
Karate Kick
Couple pictures on the beach are usually adorable, capturing romantic sunsets and loving glances, but that’s not every couple’s vibe. This guy won’t be winning any Boyfriend of the Year awards after karate-kicking his girlfriend square in the face.
Image via Imgur
Despite the wipeout, they’re still smiling—or at least he is, and she’s putting on her bravest face. He looks a little too proud of himself if you’re asking us.
Beachside Bachelor Pad
Let’s be real—after you’ve made a couple of sandcastles, taken a dip in the sea, and caught some rays, the beach can start to get a little boring. But boredom wasn’t an option for these creative beachgoers.
Image via Imgur
Instead of packing up, they decided to bring the indoors outside, constructing a makeshift living room right on the sand. Who says you can’t have all the comforts of home while enjoying the beach, too?
Gotcha!
If there’s one thing that dads do best, it’s showing off their sense of humor. Dad jokes know no bounds, this guy knew the perfect way to surprise everyone on the shore with his prosthetic leg making for a jaw-dropping prank.
Image via Imgur
It’s safe to say his sandy spectacle would have turned some heads. If the look on those kids’ faces says anything, though, it’s that this is probably not the first time he’s pulled this kind of stunt.
Swimming Companion
The ocean can be a dangerous place for anyone who isn’t a confident swimmer, so having a floatation device is a smart move. But why settle for traditional pool noodles or a regular old floatie when you can make a splash with your inflatable girlfriend?
Image via Imgur
This guy was caught on camera paddling around with his buoyant buddy keeping him company. It’s all fun and games until someone catches them sharing a smooch mid-paddle.
He’s the Goat
As the famous idiom goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink. Now, we’re not exactly sure what they say about goats and water, though if this one is anything to go by, goats and water make a great duo.
Image via Imgur
We’re obsessed with this unlikely pair headed towards the ocean, complete with matching outfits and all. Perhaps they’re going for a surfing lesson—now that’s something we’d love to see.
Don’t Lose Your Head
Move over Instagram thirst traps and cliché beach pics because pranks are making a comeback. This is one of those classic pranks that never gets old—giving your friends a minor heart attack with the whole “detached head” thing.
Image via Imgur
That being said, we’ve always wondered how people manage to pull this off without suffocating from a mouthful of sand. How long do we think they managed to stay like that?
Sit Back and Relax
While most people prefer the classic sunbathing method, laying out flat on a towel, it’s not for everyone. For the more innovative folk, like this guy, there’s a way to keep your toes in the water while sitting back and relaxing.
Image via Imgur
He looks so comfortable that he might as well be reclining in front of the TV at home! But if he’s not careful with that tide coming in, he’ll be totally submerged before he knows it.
Epic Shirt
We’ve all seen those dedicated beachcombers roaming for miles with their metal detectors and wondered whether they ever actually find anything good.
Image via Imgur
This guy isn’t just hunting for loose change, he’s on a quest for the buried treasures with style in his Rihanna-themed t-shirt, with a proud smile to match. Whether he strikes gold or just rusty bottle caps, his pun game is absolutely priceless.
Braking Bad
As kids, there was something about quicksand that instilled a fear deep within us, as if we would ever encounter quicksand in our day-to-day lives. It turns out that when you drive a Mercedes-Benz on the shoreline, it kind of has the same effect.
Image via Imgur
How this happened, we’ll never know. It’s safe to say that the owner of this vehicle is probably having a worse day than you.
Silly Goose
Of all the accessories we’ve seen people bringing along on their beach days, this might just be the strangest. Most people are frightened of geese, with their hissing and unpredictable behavior and all, but not this guy.
Image via Imgur
It’s every part as hilarious as it is heartwarming to see this goose and his human companion nestled up together looking perfectly content.
The Shade Brigade
Ginger people and the sun have a complicated love-hate relationship—kind of like trying to hug a cactus. They know they need to stay out of direct sunlight to protect their fair skin, but that shouldn’t have to mean missing out on a day at the beach.
Image via Imgur
This person has gone to great lengths to make sure they’re staying out of direct sunlight. But could their friends not have put up an umbrella or something? This can’t be fun.
Rock and Roll
Putting on sunscreen can be a real chore, especially when it comes to those hard-to-reach spots on your back. You either have to awkwardly twist and turn or, worse, ask someone else for help.
Image via Imgur
This beach hero has cracked the code on sunscreen application with the help of a handy paint roller. We’re honestly shocked that this hasn’t caught on by now—it’s practical, efficient, and best of all, no more awkward moments of asking strangers to lather you up.
Opposite Day
If there’s one thing about human nature that unites us all, it’s that we humans don’t like to be told what to do. Sometimes, being told not to do something even makes those rule-breakers among us want to do it even more.
Image via Imgur
It seems like that’s what happened with this sign on the beach. Either the kids are taking no notice or reading it and continuing to play anyway. It’s going to take a lot more than this little sign to stop a bunch of kids from having fun.
Hat-Trick
Seagulls are just menaces with wings, and this is evidence to prove it. While this poor fella was busy worrying about a seagull swooping in to steal his fries, had his hat snatched right off his head, instead!
Image via Imgur
At least, that’s what we’re assuming happened here. Though now that we think about it, perhaps it was the other way around, and this seagull was actually placing the hat onto his head. That would be wild.
DIY Emojis
Everyone knows that trying to get a good group photo is never easy and one that each member of the group is happy with is borderline impossible. Usually, someone’s blinking or the sun is in everyone’s eyes—it’s just an all-around disaster.
Image via Imgur
This bunch found a way to take a group shot where they don’t have to worry about any of that. From happy to shocked to grumpy, they’ve got all the moods covered. And they’re staying anonymous.
Sea Monster
There’s always a risk when you swim in the ocean that you might step on something slimy or encounter some kind of sea creature that you wish you hadn’t. Instead of running away, you could embrace it, like this guy did, and turn yourself into a sea monster.
Image by Lauren Alkan/MJ
The little girl looks terrified, and we don’t blame her. If we saw that emerging from the ocean, we’d be running, too.
Out of the Way
It’s a blessing and a curse that you never know which members of the public will be on the beach at the same time as you. Sometimes you can make a new friend, and other times, there are children for miles and it’s anything but peaceful.
Image by Lauren Alkan/MJ
This is one genius way to keep your kids occupied and out of the way while you get into a juicy book or top up your tan.
On Your Shoulders
Beach walks are the epitome of romance—soft sand, gentle waves, and a sunset backdrop make for the perfect date. But let’s be real: walking on the sand can be a real workout.
Image by Lauren Alkan/MJ
When his legs felt like jelly, this guy was in luck because his girlfriend was there for support, literally. Nothing says true love like giving your man a piggyback ride.
Holy Water
Surf’s up, Sister! This is one beach visitor we didn’t expect to see catching waves. With her habit flowing behind her, this nun is showing everyone that faith and fun aren’t mutually exclusive.
Image by Lauren Alkan/MJ
The ocean doesn’t discriminate—it welcomes surfers and adrenaline seekers of all kinds. She’s breaking stereotypes and making a splash, proving that even nuns know how to hang ten. We love to see it.
Fantastic Four
Humans and primates have a lot in common, from social behaviors to genetics, and it turns out that among all the other things, they also share a love for smiling for selfies.
Image by Lauren Alkan/MJ
We are obsessed with this beach selfie where their monkey friend fits right in! It’s posing perfectly for the camera as if it’s just another day at the beach for them all. It’s hard to tell who was having more fun.

Getting your first tattoo is very exciting. You go to a tattoo studio, see all the tattooed people over there, feeling like a baby lion who is about to join his older brothers. Then, you go inside a room with the tattoo artist and you are excited because you don’t know how the needle will feel on your body and you know that there is no turning back, removing a tattoo is much harder than getting one.
