The home was overcoming the challenge facing some guests who cannot get to the beach like they used to.
Syne Hills staff decided the best way was to bring the beach to them.
Cheryl Curtis, activities coordinator, said: "We dressed up in our best beach wear and played holidaymakers.
"We had fun again exploring and playing with sand and building sand castles like we use to.
"This is excellent for our motor skills and it's fun to play with.
"Feeling the texture between our fingers and using tools we managed to make a lot of sand castles.
"We finished off with some holiday games such as huck a duck and, finally, our residents got their own back and squirted staff with water pistols.
"We really did have a great day at the beach."
