The beach camp is the Island home to the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815. It has also been referred to as the Midsection Beach.
Contents |
First camp
The middle-section survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 initially set up their camp on the beach where the plane crashed. During this time, they generally sought shelter under parts of the fuselage or slept on the open sand. Eventually, the survivors used tarp and plane wreckage to contruct more comfortable shelters. The filming location of the first camp is Mokuleia Beach.
Second camp
Around Day 22, the tide changed and began sweeping away the wreckage and the shore. The survivors moved up the beach to an area abutting a sparse pine wood, and began setting up more permanent shelters. Using a combination of tarps, materials scavenged from the plane, and native materials like palm fronds, bamboo, and tree branches, the survivors were able to create a more comfortable living space. Construction increased heavily in the middle of Season Two.
Jack decided that the caves would be a more suitable living space for the survivors: it had an unlimited supply of freshwater and shade from the sun. Initially some of the survivors moved to the caves, but all of them have returned to the beachfront camp, as have the tail-section survivors who encountered the raft crew on the other side of the Island. The best-known alternative residence was the Swan, where a few survivors, such as Locke, had settled, on a temporary basis. After the Swan implosion, the survivors all resided at the camp.
The filming location of the second camp is Papailoa Beach.
Features
Church
Charlie and Eko were building a church somewhere near the camp outskirts. Eko gave up on building the church to push the button, while Charlie continued construction on his own for a while.
Part of the frame of the church is now being used to house Locke's sweat lodge. ("Further Instructions") Currently, the church is unused by the survivors.
Ping-Pong
The survivors have added several elements to the camp for recreation and enjoyment. The ping-pong table from the Swan was found shortly after the implosion, and the survivors brought it to the camp. Hurley and Sawyer had a ping-pong tournament for Sawyer's stash. ("Enter 77") Jack and Sawyer also versed each other. ("Catch-22")
Graveyard
The survivors also created a makeshift graveyard for deceased islanders. Seven of the original survivors (Scott, Boone, Shannon, Ana Lucia, Libby, Nikki and Paulo) of Oceanic Flight 815 are buried in the graveyard in a wardened off area near the camp. Ethan Rom was also buried by in a field near the campsite by Charlie and Hurley. Jack buried Edward Mars in the woods a short distance from the camp. Arzt was never buried at the camp, since he was destroyed by the dynamite. Eko is buried between the camp and the Pearl station.
Beach camp kitchen
The survivors have a kitchen stocked with DHARMA food collected from the Swan pantry, the pallet drop, and pillaged fruit from the jungle. The kitchen also has a dining table built by Sayid and Charlie and is used for eating and cutting boar. The camp includes several water troughs that deliver a water supply channeled from the caves or from rain, that Steve brings to the camp every morning. ("Left Behind")
Peanut butter, Apollo candy bars, Ranch composite, Dharmalars, apple cider, tuna, whole corn, green beans, carrots, apple sauce, peaches, and nutibars are some of the food that was found in the Swan and pallet drop. Charlie and Sayid also contructed a dining table with large bamboo sticks and leaves. ("The Whole Truth") The dining table is frequently used by the survivors to cut boar, slice fruit, and a place to sit down and eat. ("Left Behind") ("Ji Yeon")
Residences
The survivors have constructed many tents and shelters spread throughout the beach camp. The tents have been contructed using tarp, leaves, bamboo, palm fronds, and various other materials. All of the survivors have a shelter of some sort.

| Shelter | Used by | Info | ||||||||
 | Claire, Aaron, and Charlie | Claire and Aaron lived together in a large shelter. Prior to his death, Charlie lived with them. When Claire discovered the heroin in Charlie's possession she forced him to move away, and he set up a shelter next to Sawyer's tent. However, when they reconciled he moved back in with Claire. | ||||||||
| Sun and Jin | Sun and Jin share a tent near Sawyer and Hurley. | ||||||||
| Libby | Hurley helped Libby construct her shelter. ("The 23rd Psalm") | ||||||||
| Juliet | Juliet built her tent after coming to the camp from the Barracks. ("One of Us") | ||||||||
| Arzt | Arzt had a large shelter that is full of bugs that he has discovered on the Island, including the Medusa spider. ("Exposé") | ||||||||
| Hurley | Hurley lived in a covered shelter next to Sun and Jin. | ||||||||
| Sawyer | Sawyer lived in a large shelter in front of Claire's residence, although he spends much of his time in a first-class airplane seat from the plane wreckage that sits slightly outside his tent "on the porch". ("Maternity Leave") Sawyer also hid the guns inside of his tent. ("?") Sawyer's tent was destroyed once by a boar and again by Hurley during their fight, but he rebuilt the damage using bamboo and fronds. ("Outlaws") ("Dave") | ||||||||
| Kate | Kate lives five tents away from Sawyer. ("The Brig") | ||||||||
| Nikki and Paulo | Paulo and Nikki shared a large shelter together. ("Exposé") | ||||||||
| Shannon | Shannon lived in a shelter separate from Boone. ("...In Translation") | ||||||||
| Desmond | Desmond built a small shelter under a tree after he joined the survivors' camp. ("Live Together, Die Alone") | ||||||||
| Rose and Bernard | Rose and Bernard share a tent together. Hurley was caught by Frogurt stealing wine from their tent. ("The Adventures of Hurley and Frogurt") | ||||||||
| Michael and Walt | Michael and Walt shared a tent that was not taken down after they left on the raft. It presumably still exists. ("Abandoned") | ||||||||
| Ana Lucia | Ana Lucia built a covered structure, but it is unknown if it is still being used after her death. | ||||||||
| Eko | Eko built a shelter after his arrival at the beach camp. Eko had a vision of Yemi appearing in his tent. After this, his tent caught on fire. After the fire was put out, it is likely that the damage was not repaired since Eko was killed by the Monster soon afterwards. ("The Cost of Living") | ||||||||
| Sayid | Sayid sometimes works on electrical equipment inside of his tent. | ||||||||
Other residences
- There is a "big guy who lives behind Sayid and Scott (Steve)," according to Ana Lucia. ("Maternity Leave")
- According to Sawyer, Tracy sleeps next to "good ol' Steve to keep her warm at night." It's not clear if they share a tent or just live next door to each other. ("Exodus, Part 1")
- With the destruction of the Swan and the abandonment of the caves, it is unclear if Locke has his own shelter, although it is assumed he does.
- Daniel and Charlotte accompanied Jack and Juliet back to the beach. While it is doubtful they made permanent residences, they may be utilizing shelters left by Locke's followers.
- Boone had a seperate tent from Shannon. ("...In Translation")
Raids and Infiltrations
When Flight 815 crashed on the Island, Ben sent Ethan Rom to infiltrate the survivors camp. ("A Tale of Two Cities") Ethan was able to infiltrate the camp, acting as one of the survivors. Ethan also gave Jack a bag full of medicine, showing his concern for Claire's pregnancy. ("Jack, Meet Ethan. Ethan? Jack")
Juliet was sent by Ben to take tests of the women at the beach camp to see if they were pregnant. ("One of Us") She later told Jack what Ben had sent her to do. ("Operation: Sleeper")
Ben sent Ryan Pryce and his group of the ten best Others to raid the beach camp and capture the pregnant women in the tents that were marked. Jin, Bernard, and Sayid stayed behind to fight the Others. All ten of the Others were killed by the survivors in the battle. ("Through the Looking Glass")
Other residents
- Juliet joined the camp after being sent on a mission by Ben. ("One of Us")
- Daniel and Charlotte joined the camp after meeting the survivors. ("Eggtown")
- Miles joined the beach camp after returning from the Barracks. ("There's No Place Like Home, Part 1")
