I have problem with beachtroopers (or whatever) because it doesn’t make sense for them to change armour just because they go to a beach. It is not an extreme condition like frozen Hoth. If stormtroopers did not require to change armour when they went to a very hot place like Tatooine, I don’t see the reason for them to change it when they go to a beach (unless when they go for R&R, but then they need a swimsuit, not an armour).
Shore Troopers, as they are called, would need to be able to adapt to three different conditions in a small area: wooded area, sand/beach and be able to maneuver in the water. If, like Scout Troopers, they aren’t intended for heavy combat/warfare and are mostly for patrol and peacekeeping, it would make sense that they would have different armor.
