300+ D&D Random Beach Encounter Ideas

D1 Random Beach Encounters

  1. A group of 2d6+4 mermen are swimming in the water. They are on their way to a nearby village to trade their goods. They will offer the players some of their goods at a discounted rate if they play their cards right.

  2. Local children are having a beach volleyball match and invite the players to join their teams.

  3. A flash of light in the distance reveals a storm brewing far out to sea. Suddenly, 2d6 water elementals rise from the waves, attacking anything they see as a threat to the integrity of the sea.

  4. A beach vendor shares the legend of a hidden treasure buried somewhere along the coastline.

  5. A jogger runs past, leaving a trail of footprints.

  6. A group is picking a fight with another group of people on the beach for no reason. The person leading this group is extremely ambitious, and will take over any kingdom that he wants, starting with this kingdom if he can get away with it. A player rolling a wisdom check (DC10) will remember there's a bounty for the man. He won't go quietly and has a big (huge) brother.

  7. The group encounters a charming pearl diver who offers to share treasure if they help him dive for oysters. Underwater, he reveals his true form as a sahuagin, attempting to trap them in a submerged cavern filled with dangerous sea creatures.

  8. A man is walking along the beach, complaining about his feet hurting. He is wearing robes and has nothing on them. He is a wizard who is studying the sea and its magical properties.

  9. A local singer serenades beachgoers with sweet, cheerful songs accompanied by her lute.

  10. A group of 1d6 artists set up easels along the shore, capturing the picturesque scene. They offer to paint the party's portrait for a small fee and a story of their latest adventure.
