Coccinella septempunctata
One centimeter long, black with strong yellow spots like shown in the pictures. I can't properly recall, but it's underside was of a light yellow or green. Never tried to bite me when I interacted with it nor did it try to hide in the sand while escaping.
Found in the beach, way further from the sea and near scarce vegetation that grew in the sand.
