Villager houses on the beach

I think they look great. :) But my southern beach is a sort of public beach for now. I am thinking of moving one of my player characters to the beach, by the dock area. I have my cafe there, but will probably move it.
 
The only villager I have that would really fit is Flora, and I wouldn't want to put her off by herself. I also have 2 south rivers, so it would be cramped to plunk her house down. I put her on the edge of the grass by the western beach, figuring that was close enough. She spends a lot of time Naruto running up and down that beach.
 
Ooh! Gimme a minute, I'll grab the pics... both Marina and Shep have beach houses and, personally, I'm SUPER proud of how their yards turned out 😊
 
Did you ever make that tidal pool? I'm curious as to how you could do it, since beaches can't be terraformed. Thanks!

I was going to have a thin strip of (grass) land between the beach and a big terraformed lake, and then I was going to make an island in that lake covered with the sand texture. It could maybe work, but I abandoned the idea long before I actually got Audie.
 
having double south rivers almost 100% ruins your chances of having nice looking villager houses on the beach(es). i put as many as i could on the beach during the beginning and casually moved a majority of them but i still have a few laying around.

my house is still on the bottom right beach, mainly because it's really close to RS and the Airport. the area is like, super crowed though (not because of the flowers smh).

for an actual animal villager; here's glady's house near the dock, previously was agent s but i had to give her to someone. might be pecan's in the future because i haven't planned a specific spot for her on the island oops. this might be the only house that stays on the beach because i kinda like how it looks, if not i'll turn it into some type of fishing post i guess.

Alright, here's Marina's! It's right below the shopping district but still has plenty of beach space for her to enjoy. She's quite meticulous and keeps it clean, even though I imagine she's having to sweep it A LOT given that... well, there's gonna be a lot of sand on that boardwalk.

Speaking of her home, it has become Gullivaar's favorite place to wash-up. It's kind of a pain, since I need to move a stop block to "rescue" him, but I can see where he'd feel comfy there. After all, it's well-swept 😉

And here's Shep's! It's near the entrance/playground/market/one of my side character's houses. He wasn't originally gonna have a beach house (whereas I always knew Marina would because... well, c'mon) but he replaced... Bud, I think? And HIS house was on the beach. Then, when Shep moved in, I realized how ADORABLE his house looked on the beach! Also, his house is just adorable anyway, because the roof matches his hair 🥰 Anyway. He's got a bench and a little candle and I think the raccoon guy looks nice there. Also, the pot in display is the same one he has in his house. Like Marina, he keeps it clean, but not AS clean. He spends a lot of time chilling on his bamboo bench. I thought I had a pic of it, but I can't find it.

Also, as you may've noticed, I discovered bamboo stop blocks look super neat lining beach paths! Or, at least, I think they do 😄
Anyway, there ya go! These are some of my favorite yards I've done~​
 
It looks cool. But I don't think I would like it for myself. Small areas, would be crowed, and leave to much space on the map.
I was actually going to put my campsite on the beach, since that was only one building and I liked the idea of camping on the beach.
But there was another place on my island I decided to put it instead and I love it. I did see someone made a second character and just kept the character the tent instread of upgrading to a house, so it looked like the campsite was always there. Maybe I will do a second campsite and do that on the beach. We shallsee. I have a bunch of amiibo cards now though, so I can always just scan someone in everyday.

omg I love them!! I never thought of using the bamboo stop blocks like that, their piers/boardwalks look really cozy and homey!!
 
I only put villagers on the beach if it fits their design. I have Audie's house on the beach, surrounded by coconut trees, a surfboard and a few items like a beach ball and sandcastle etc. etc.
I'll probably move another beach-like villager beside her if I get the chance!
