More exactly the beach is called Pendine Sands in South Wales. I drove myself on it some years ago when our family went on holidays in Wales and Ireland. There are no road rules on that beach. So you see quite a few teenagers who aren't old enough for a drivers license, who may drive daddy's car (at slow speeds) on that beach.

i used to know that sea water gives harm to all of the car in general. because of the salt.

Not only the salt is not that good for the car, all that sand will find its way in every little hole in the car. That's my biggest concern. Those vids on the pendine sands are great to watch, but I wouldn't do such things with my own car. With a rental car on the other hand...
