walked – predicate
to-adverb
the-article
sandy- adjective
beach- noun
and-coordinating conjunction (walked and swam)

My guess is these sentences are are about the conjunction.
(You) wrap it up in this paper and (you) place it over here.
Diagram accordingly as a compound sentence, placing the understood “you” in parenthesis.
In the second sentence, “to the sandy beach” and “in the ocean” are prepositional phrases modifying your compound verbs walked and swam. diagram accordingly.
but that’s just how I see it.
