the sign 'beach' uses both hands. Bring the non-dominant arm across the chest. Relax the dominant hand so the fingers are slightly splayed. Bring the hand down so it is between the wrist and elbow of the non-dominant arm. Bring the hand down past the arm, then up above the arm a few times. As you move the hand, wiggle the fingers separately.
Point to yourself for 'I', sign 'want', sign 'go', and then perform the 'beach' sign by making the wiggling wave motion with your dominant hand against your stationary non-dominant arm.
Sign 'beach' by bringing your dominant hand's wiggling fingers up and down past your non-dominant arm, then sign 'beautiful' by sweeping your hand across your face.
Sign 'we', then 'walk', and finish with the 'beach' sign, ensuring your non-dominant arm is steady across your chest to represent the coastline while your dominant hand mimics the waves.

Yes, you should always use your non-dominant arm as the stationary coastline across your chest. Your dominant hand will be the one doing the active movement, representing the waves.
Usually, moving your dominant hand up and down two or three times is perfect. You just need to show the continuous, rhythmic motion of the waves crashing and receding against the shore.
It doesn't need to make heavy contact. Your dominant hand can lightly brush past or stay just slightly in front of your non-dominant arm as it moves up and down.
