sand sculpting
Coastal granular construction
Sand sculpting is the art of shaping wet sand into three-dimensional forms, from simple beach castles to elaborate competition pieces depicting figures, animals, or architecture.
The practice ranges from casual seaside play to professional competitions with intricate techniques: We watched the sand sculpting contest on the boardwalk.
Also called sand carving.
