Not really. While the beach is composed of loose sand, it can not be called "rock" as such in a bulk sense. Each individual sand grain is a tiny rock in itself. If the beach becomes overlaid with other sediments, becomes compressed and all the grains fuse together over time, then it could be called "rock" (sandstone).
