<div dir="ltr">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.

</div>
<div>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. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>These paths are routable of course, but since it's far from
complete the beach as a whole is not.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>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.</div>

Good point on waterways!<br>

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