Every character has to start at the bottom, and then work their way to the top over the course of the story. Sometimes, though, an author will want to take that to its logical conclusion and start the story with the character waking up marooned on a beach with literally nothing except the clothes on their back and whatever was in their pockets. Or even less than that. This type of beginning gives the author an easy starting point for his story, because it boils everything down to absolute basics and comes standard with a predefined list of relatively simple questions for the author to answer; among them is usually "How did we end up here to begin with?", a good way to get the audience immediately vested into the story. Which questions he chooses to answer and what answers he gives add more detail to the scene and flesh it out into whatever story the author wishes to tell. In video games, a beach is an ideal tutorial area for new players, since the critters are generally weak and easy to kill and the loot is basic enough for the player to learn how the game's inventory systems work before the game leads them inland to their first real adventures. Note that this is when the main story of a work starts with a character waking up on a beach, regardless of where the plot goes afterward. This is not the same as a Robinsonade, though it can become one if the character's survival on the beach remains the focus of the plot. Also note that some works might include a brief prologue or flashback before the character actually wakes up. This is fine, so long as the work's main plot opens on this trope. Compare and contrast You Wake Up in a Room, where the character is locked in a room. Contrast Tropical Epilogue, where the story ends with the character on the beach. |

Dungeons & Dragons Online starts with your character waking up on the shores of Korthos Island after being shipwrecked by the white dragon Aussircaex. There is a party of adventurers searching the shipwreck for survivors when you wake up, though, and they get you some starting gear before escorting you to civilization (through the tutorial caverns). | |

Redwall has the titular character of Mariel of Redwall, a young mousemaid, washing up on a beach after a shipwreck with no name or memories, only the clothes on her back and a heavy knotted rope. She gives herself the name Storm Gullwhacker after the weather and the rope (which she used to drive off a hungry seagull). It's not until much later that she learns her real name. | |

SCP -61231 is a crab who makes all statements about him appear to say the exact opposite of what they mean. A local child found him unresponsive and injured on a beach shortly after Hurricane Sandy. The crab was then adopted by the kid's family. Three days later, he regained mobility and his voice, and escaped after igniting the family's home. Police reports of "a rude armed crab shooting lightning bolts" running toward the Hudson River led the Foundation to capture him with few casualties. | |

A couple of games in The Legend of Zelda series begin on the beach: Link's Awakening begins with Marin finding Link washed up on the beach after his ship was wrecked in a storm. After he recuperates in a bed at her house, he has to return to the beach to get his sword and begin the adventure proper. Phantom Hourglass also opens with Link washed up on a beach after he gets tossed overboard a ship in a heavy storm. |

The Elder Scrolls: The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall opens with a storm sinking the ship taking you to the eponymous city, so you wash up on the shores of High Rock. Given that the game was essentially a 3D Dungeon Crawler, however, the first level is not so much a beach as a regular dungeon whose exit happens to be near the shoreline. In the early days of The Elder Scrolls Online, once Aldmeri Dominion characters escaped Coldharbour, they'd start the game by awakening on the beach of Khenarthi's Roost after a storm. |

The Lost Years of Merlin opens with "Emrys"/future Merlin waking up with amnesia on the shores of Britain. He finds a woman who claims to be his mother, though her evasiveness makes him suspect that she's lying. (She's not.) He almost gets attacked by a boar (actually the Big Bad) before being saved by a stag (the Big Good, Dagda). He later learns that they came from a magical island called Fincayra, which is the main setting of the series. | |

Kirby and the Forgotten Land begins with wormholes opening above Popstar and sucking Kirby and several things from the planet into them. The cutscene concludes with the pink puffball washing up on a beach; this beach is actually the beginning of the game's first level, "Point of Arrival", with you taking control of Kirby once he gets up. | |

Minecraft often spawns you on or close to a beach. Other survival sandbox games like ARK: Survival Evolved have followed suit. | |

Dr. Franklin's Island really starts with Semi in an airport terminal, having won a three-week trip to a rainforest conservation station in Quito. All in the first chapter, they take off and are blown off course, something goes terribly wrong, and the plane crashes in the sea and explodes, killing everyone but Semi and a couple other kids who manage to swim to shore and collapse exhausted on the beach. They wake up there in the next chapter, on the titular island. | |

In Rust, the default spawning point for everyone on the server is on a beach, where you start naked with only a torch and a rock in your inventory. Unlike in other games, though, staying on the beach to learn the game's mechanics is not advised, because the other players spawning on that beach will try to kill you. | |

The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall opens with a storm sinking the ship taking you to the eponymous city, so you wash up on the shores of High Rock. Given that the game was essentially a 3D Dungeon Crawler, however, the first level is not so much a beach as a regular dungeon whose exit happens to be near the shoreline. | |

Inception begins In Medias Res, so even though plot-wise the scene where Cobb wakes up on a beach all the way down in Limbo is near the climax it is the first scene the audience is shown. | |
