If you want beaches to route in general, you need to draw a path along
the entire length of the beach, with connecting paths to all accessing
paths and roads. That has not been done in Nederland, which has one
very long and wide sandy beach along its entire west coast.
For the hiking routes using sections of the beach paths have been
drawn over the sand (surface=sand), between the access points
involved. This allows a continuous route relation which renders and is
clickable on waymarkedtrails/hiking.
These paths are routable of course, but since it's far from complete
the beach as a whole is not.
Other surfaces have paths drawn on them for the same reason:
individual pedestrian areas, grass areas, wood areas, village_greens.
In this case, they are usually present for routability. Waterways
along or crossing natural=water areas are the same thing, in this respect.
Good point on waterways!

Hi,
There are a few walking routes that incorporatesections of beach
walking.
These sections have no 'infrastructure' - they are not formed or
unformed paths, they are just walking along the beach.
The choice of how to map them? As I see it there are two;
A) Create a Path - tagged as a path e.g.Way: 219753403
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/219753403#map=16/-43.5372/146.5824
This renders and is usable by routing software and appears on
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=2712082&map=16!-43.5369!146.5842
<https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=2712082&map=16%21-43.5369%21146.5842>
B) Create a way without any physical tags e.g Way: 656134075
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/656134075#map=18/-29.57874/153.33473
This does not render on maps but does appear on
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=4869590&map=18!-29.5793!153.3358
<https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=4869590&map=18%21-29.5793%21153.3358>
This may not be rotatable with some software as it has no physical
presence.
My preference is for B as that does not imply a 'path' but it does
get
some indication of the continuous route.
Any thoughts?
