Great advice so far. I do what brncofan does & get to the beach 2hrs before low tide & stay at least an hour past. The Nox 600 is fun to use on a beach. It works well in wet or dry sand and in the water. I tend to go with Beach 1 with sensitivity at 21+ until I'm mostly in the surf then I switch to Beach 2. In the water I use Beach 2. I'll put up with a bit of falsing in Beach 1 & high sensitivity near/in the surf because you can tell whats a false & what's a target after a while. I mostly hit the beach with a White's Dual Field but really enjoy the days that I take the Nox 600.
