You can find the beach volleyball international rules here:
        http://www.fivb.ch/Beach/BVBRules/BVBRules.html


In the US, the AVP men's pro beach tour uses a 30' x 60' court.  USA
Volleyball and the FIVB (the rest of the world, that is) use a 9m x
18m court.  

Here's a volleyball magazine article on building sand courts:
        http://www.volleyballmag.com/aug95/court.htm

But, this article by John Kessel is even better:
