During a beach landing, the pilot made a successful touchdown, but on roll out, the nose wheel sunk into soft sand, further impacting the propeller. The propeller continued to rotate as the nose wheel collapsed, resulting in the aircraft coming to rest inverted. Both occupants self extricated from the wreckage with minor injuries and were assisted later by local fishermen to right the aircraft.
