The `Buying' franchise that includes `Buying Alaska', `Buying Hawaii' and `Buying the Bayou' makes a splash with an edition that profiles families searching for the waterfront home of their dreams. `Buying the Beach' looks at spectacular seaside properties around the United States, showcasing unique homes where potential buyers can settle into the sand and soak up the sun mere steps from the backyard. House hunters in each episode tour three properties before choosing the one that makes them happy as a clam.
