...and we'd probably just say "by the mud flats", as a "beach" is
somewhere you leave your towel absorbing sand while you're in the surf
for a bodybash. I mean, shaking the sand off your towel over the
surrounding sunbathers is only barely acceptable if there's a sea-breeze
making it unavoidable, but shaking mud off it all over them would just
be bloody rude. ;-)
