In a coastal scene at dusk or early morning, three people are visible along the shoreline. The person on the left is bent over, using a broom to sweep. Another individual is using a shovel, and a child is walking between them towards the water. Several small boats are anchored in the calm sea. Trees are visible on the left side of the frame. The sky is a muted blue-grey, suggesting either dawn or twilight. The foreground is darker, with the sandy beach giving way to short grass.
