Get 50+ free 3D scans of beaches and cliffs for use in Unreal Engine

Epic Games has made a set of over 50 assets for creating a beach environment – including 3D scanned cliffs and beach materials – available for free from Fab, its online marketplace.

Day By The Beach, games artist Stefan ‘SO.Art’ Oprisan‘s asset pack, is part of the latest set of time-limited free content released on Fab, and will be free until 29 July 2025.

Over 50 scanned assets for creating a beach environment
The Day By The Beach pack consists of a set of 3D scanned assets suitable for recreating a beach at sunset, including scans of sections of cliff and beach materials like sand and shingle.

It includes 58 individual meshes, with up to six LODs, and textures at up to 4,096 x 4,096px.

The Unreal Engine scene features a custom RVT shader that simulates wetness on the terrain and assets, and procedural scattering of pebbles, seashells and seaweed.

All of the meshes include “integrated barnacles” – almost certainly the first time that phrase has ever been used in a CG Channel story – which can be displaced separately for extra realism.

System requirements and availability
Day By The Beach is available as an asset package for Unreal Engine 4.26+ and 5.0+ under a Fab Standard license.

The terms of the Fab Standard license permit content to be used in “any engine or tool”, including for commercial projects, subject to the restrictions set out in the Fab EULA.
