The oceans are vast and mysterious, covering 71% of our planet and containing all kinds of things that we have yet to discover, despite our best efforts to explore the deepest depths. Perhaps it's time we change the direction of our focus and look towards the most popular place-the beach. Besides taking a dip in the cool waters and soaking in the sand, there are lots of interesting finds at the beach. Just like the phrase, "Life's a beach," the beach can be a memorable place to be. Perhaps you're wondering what's the wildest thing that can happen. A seagull swooping in and stealing your wallet? Probably not but it's fun to entertain the possibilities.

We have compiled a series of the most unexpected things that took place at the seashore and it turns out, these pictures have a befitting answers for the question above. So if you thought that nothing ever really happens on a beach day, let us prove you wrong. The same water you dip in on a hot summer afternoon can also spit out a giant squid right in your face.
