Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Album reviews Beach Party is the debut album of the British indie pop group, Marine Girls. The album was recorded in a home studio by Pat Bermingham and released as a cassette on his own In Phaze label in 1981. It was released on vinyl by Whaam! Records in 1981 and then by Cherry Red Records in 1987 and 2014. The albums Beach Party and Lazy Ways were reissued together on one CD with bonus tracks by Cherry Red Records in 1988.

Reception

The album reached #29 in the UK Indie Charts in March 1982. AllMusic awarded the album with 3 stars and its review by Stewart Mason states: "The debut album by the Marine Girls is one of the most willfully amateurish releases of its era, which is not necessarily a bad thing".

Beach Party was named as one of Kurt Cobain's 50 favourite albums in his diaries.
