* MindScrew: During the swimming race, one of the contestants is a horse jockey who runs through the deep water as if it was dry land--[[RealityEnsues they immediately start sinking just seconds later.]] As the horse sinks, it [[LampshadeHanging lampshades this]] by telling his jockey "This can't be Santa Anita!"

* OhCrap: Porky understandably panics when he thinks theres a shark behind him. Pinky follows suit when he realises there actually is a shark in the waters.

* ButtMonkey: Porky is basically a walking punching bag for both beach patrons and his own nephew in the episode. While he does win the swimming race in the end, he presumably doesn't get to enjoy his victory due to being scared off by a real shark.

* KidsAreCruel: Pinky is a brat who gives Porky no shortage of grief and clearly enjoys doing it (or is at least too young to comprehend just how sadistic his actions are). Oddly enough, he helps his uncle win a swimming contest, but via a very unorthodox prank.

Added DiffLines:

* BeachBury:
** Porky pitches his umbrella on what turns out to be a bulldog buried in the sand, who is none too pleased.
** Pinky asks his uncle if he wants to be buried in sand. Porky agrees, and a dump truck comes out of nowhere and buries him in tons of sand.


Added DiffLines:

* MisplacedWildlife: Along with the shark in the final gag, Porky also gets a starfish stuck to his face. Neither species would survive long in fresh water.


Added DiffLines:

* ShrunkInTheWash: The Bathing Suit Fitter is a shower that pours water on the bathers, causing their swimsuits to shrink to fit. (A bit of FridgeLogic, as it doesn't seem practical to make a bathing suit out of fabric that shrinks when wet.) Parodied when a fat guy in a too-small swimsuit gets on the fitter and his ''body'' shrinks until it fits the suit.

** Porky's nephew. He constantly messes with his uncle for kicks, such as swatting him with a toy shovel (and unwittingly smacking him with a real shovel), pretending to drown in shallow water and then laughing at Porky when he falls for his trick, and then dumping a truckload of sand on top of him. That said, he does help his uncle win a swimming race by tricking him into thinking his toy sailboat is a shark fin and then reveals his charade after he won—or rather, tries to, as it turns out to the horror of both of them that there really was a shark in the water.

* BaitAndSwitch: The sequence involving Porky, Pinky and the shovel relies on this kind of gag. First Pinky swats the sleeping Porky once, almost gets caught doing it again, and the third time makes it seem like he's been caught--but reveals Porky believes the prankster is an (offscreen) kid with a shovel sitting right in front of him. Porky tells off the kid and confiscates his toy shovel, but the kid pulls out two more shovels and smacks Porky with another one. Pinky shows up and is seemingly about to smack the kid with the giant shovel in retaliation--only to swing it around and strike Porky with it, sending him flying. Its not really clear if Pinky did it on purpose or not, but he was pleased with the outcome either way.
