Ownership of land below the high-water mark usually belongs to the state or federal government, depending on the location. This area is often considered part of the public trust doctrine, ensuring that it remains accessible to the public for activities like fishing, navigation, and recreation. Private ownership typically extends only to the high-water mark.
The UK coastline above the low water mark is owned by various land owners. The coastline below the low water mark is owned by the Crown, ie The Queen.
The UK coastline is owned by a mix of individuals, organizations, and government bodies. The Crown Estate owns a significant portion of the foreshore and seabed, while private landowners and local authorities also own different sections of the coastline. Public access to most beaches in the UK is guaranteed under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000.
Pretty certain (not 100%) that the largest private landowner in the world is the Nature Conservancy. Property titles vary in type and in definition from one state to another and from one country to another, but I believe Nature Conservancy holds title to and/or "use rights" to the most acres of private land .
In 1927 the city of Boulder acquired the Arapaho Glacier as part of a 3,685 acre land purchase from the federal government for the purpose of protecting the city's water supply. Boulder now has the distinction of being the only city in the United States that owns a glacier. It also owns several pristine lakes further down the valley that are strictly off limits to the public.

No. There are land rights and water rights. When people acquire land they don't get the water rights too. If they did that could mean that every few miles someone owns the water. The rivers are state property.
