Sex on the beach is the right usage. This is because beach is open & the act is done on the beach .
Sex in the bedroom is right usage. This is because bedroom is enclosed by walls & the act is done inside the bedroom.
Sex on the bed in the bedroom is right usage. This is because bedroom is enclosed by walls & the act is done inside the bedroom AND the act is done on the bed & not inside the bed.
