Monster Beach is an Australian television series created by Bruce Kane, Maurice Argiro (who also created Kitty Is Not a Cat) and Patrick Crawley, which first premiered as a 70 minute TV special on Cartoon Network on 31 October 2014 and was then later commissioned as a full series airing in 2020. Originally produced by the companies Bogan Entertainment Solutions (later Studio Moshi) and Fragrant Gumtree Entertainment (in association with Cartoon Network Asia Pacific), it's the second locally animated production to be commissioned by the channel after Exchange Student Zero. It was released on DVD on 1 June 2016 from Madman Entertainment.
In 2017, a series was greenlit by Cartoon Network for a 52 episode TV series consisting of 11 minute episodes; a pilot episode based on the televised film itself was announced but never released.
The series started airing on Cartoon Network Australia on 11 April 2020 and won Best Animated TV Programme at the 2020 Content Asia Awards. Monster Beach is animated by Studio Moshi in Australia and Inspidea in Malaysia.
