Tom's day at the beach doesn't start out well. First he gets his swimsuit caught in the door of the beach house, and doesn't realize it until his intended dive in the ocean sends him snapping back and crashing through the door. He runs out and tries again. This time he is so determined to jump in the water that when he does so, he doesn't notice the tide is out and that he is swimming in the sand, which is filled with broken bottles, tin cans and other debris. Later, he tries to win over a beautiful girl on the beach, but, being the boor he is, he annoys her by drinking her soda pop, eating her hot dog and munching loudly as he lays his head in her lap. Suddenly, a tomato flies through the air and lands on his head. So does a banana peel. Tom looks for the culprit and finds him in the girl's picnic basket. Jerry is inside, eating what he wants and tossing out the rest...

This is a fairly decent Tom and Jerry cartoon. the setting is good and is creative with the female, crab, bathing suits, gags etc. Tom eating a clam and consuming sand make for a good laugh, as well as tom's attempts at impressing the girl. The ending with the beach toy and tom's flying trip was a great way to exit the cartoon. The only negative I have however is that I feel the first chase scene, where the crab attacks tom and then he gets himself stuck in a brolly, is completely filler and unnecessary. when jerry was seen tossing out food it should've cut straight to tom slamming the bottle cap over his head. Though with the first chase we did see the crab in action and poor tom all closed up inside the parasol. Fairly decent cartoon, not too bad and not too great either. 6/10

Tom wants to enjoy a day at the beach with toodles, but jerry causes mayhem and for a while a green crab gets involved as well. Jerry bites through the cat's hand and locks him in a beach umbrella and then the crab goes into his suit and makes a flap in the suit, which consequently left tom's bum showing. Tom bites into a rock, drinks sand, gets trapped inside umbrellas, swallows an inflatable horse. Jerry hides inside a banana and ends tom's relationship with toodles when tom spits in her face, after being served salt water from the sea by the mouse. Jerry burys tom and when the cat digs his head out, he is smacked in the face by jerry with a small spade.

Tom is spending a day at the beach, and is out to impress the sexy white cat who is sunbathing nearby. Mischievous Jerry, however, is determined to scupper Tom's plans.I love it when Tom and Jerry get away from their usual domestic setting to cause havoc somewhere new, and the seaside proves to be the ideal locale for plenty of inventive mayhem and violent hi-jinx: the cat and mouse get in trouble with a cantankerous crab, who is keen to use his pincers on the duo whenever possible; Jerry gets Tom to swallow sand, break his teeth on a shell sandwich, and leap head first onto a wooden post (which the cat is tricked into thinking is a drowning woman); Jerry is launched from a soda bottle into the sea; and Tom swallows an inflatable horse.

Tom is out for a fun day at the beach, but everything turns out to be a disaster, right from the start when his bathing suit gets stuck in the door! Then he dives into the ocean, but the tide goes out and he hits nothing but sand and a bunch of tin cans and other garbage.One thing after another goes wrong, but Tom, to his credit, remains upbeat. Then he discovers Jerry in the picnic basket eating all the food. Jerry then takes big bites out of poor Tom, to gets further bitten by a crab, on and on and on. Tom - and the crab - gets a few licks in on Jerry, too, but only a few.This is non-stop action, almost wearing you out in just seven minutes. The frenetic pace is almost too much.
