Most beaches in the US are municipal (local) or state parks. Most such parks close at dusk. Some still allow walk in access. Some do not. Beaches that typically do not close are usually private. Access will be limited on private beaches, and those who access without permission are usually trespassing.

Keep in mind though that property rights only extend to the water line. Private citizens generally do not own past the line of water on the beach. Theoretically, then, you could walk the entire coast of the US so long as you stay in the water and that guy yelling at you up on the sand can only stand there and yell.
