beach snack

Shoreline finger food

A beach snack is food eaten at the beach—typically portable, handheld items that don't require utensils: chips, fruit, sandwiches, popsicles.

The term sometimes appears in playful or flirtatious contexts to describe an attractive person spotted at the beach: Check out that beach snack by the lifeguard stand.
