This Summer, Destination America plunges into paradise with the newest addition to its popular "Buying" franchise, which includes hit series Buying Alaska and Buying the Bayou, with BUYING THE BEACH. Spanning more than 95,000 miles of the U.S. coastline from Alaska to California and from Texas to Maine, watch as the all-new series takes real American families on a sandy search for the waterfront home of their dreams. BUYING THE BEACH offers an inside look at amazing seaside properties across the U.S.A., showcasing unique homes where potential buyers can settle into the sand and soak up the sun mere steps from their own backyard. Tune in to the series premiere of BUYING THE BEACH, Monday June 2 with back-to-back episodes at 9/8c and 9:30/8:30c on Destination America.

"There is nothing better than relaxing at the end of the day with the ocean breeze watching the sunset from your backyard beach chair with your toes in the sand." said Marc Etkind, general manager of Destination America. "Forget about your crabby day and be happy as a clam, because life is a beach on Destination America."

Each episode of BUYING THE BEACH presents house hunters with three potential properties to choose from. Local realtors guide the process helping potential buyers to find the perfect place, whether it's a beachside mansion in South Carolina, a cottage at the ocean's edge in Oregon, a bungalow along the shores of Mississippi, or a two-story houseboat anchored in California.
