So, first of all; dramatic licence always applies. Even if there had been a cliff or rocky foreshore in the area, dramatic licence would be that there isn't, because it suits our narrative. Maybe the Heavenfall changed the terrain, maybe in this alternate universe, the Iranians landscaped the area. Either way - just go with it. 
But as it stands; you are correct, we're going up the bit with the beach. That's why I chose it, I spent a while looking at the maps to make sure of it. Again... just go with it? I've already set up the scene. I'm not going to go back and change it now, because I've described what the region is like adequately already. 

Secondly - I don't know why you're going after the theme park? The orders are to move up the beach and take out defences, and that's the scene that's been set up, not anything else. Maddy literally gave the orders and specified what the objective was. This is just a quick opening to throw us into some fun action. Anything bigger or more elaborate will come after. 

EDIT: I made a cruddy map
