I haven't tried a slient sketch before, so here goes...
SCENE: CROWDED BEACH
U.F.O. APPEARS IN THE SKY.
PEOPLE ON BEACH LOOK UP IN THE SKY, AND POINT AT THE U.F.O. THEY START SCREAMING AND RUNNING, DESPERATE TO GET OFF THE BEACH.
U.F.O. LANDS IN A CLOUD OF SMOKE, DOOR OPENS.
ALIEN FAMILY WALK OUT, LOOK ROUND, SHRUG THEIR SHOULDERS.
THEY WALK OVER TO A SUNLOUNGER AND PUT THEIR TOWELS DOWN AND START APPLYING SUN LOTION.
Not bad but it needs a twist in my view.
Maybe they put down towels on the sunloungers and leave, then more aliens appear and are pissed off by this.

Or the other aliens appear and say they were there first...left slime on the loungers at 5am that morning or something.... 
Or the aliens land at the road side, people run away screaming. The aliens walk down the beach, getting towels out of their bags as they do so. The get to the sun loungers and there are some other aliens already there. The new aliens look pissed.
Good idea by the way, obviously getting the imaginations firing on here!
THEY WALK OVER TO SOME TOWEL COVERED SUNLOUNGERS, SWAP AROUND THE TOWELS AND FLY OFF AGAIN.
Right since everyone else is muscling in on your sketch...
I would keep the gag as is, but deliver it slightly differently. Have the aliens emerge looking menacing, then have one of them say, in guttural alien speech, with subtitles, "Did you remember to bring the bucket and spade?"
God, everyone thinks they're a comedian on here
I actually quite like it as it is.

No, No! I'm loving it, keep the ideas coming. It was just a silly idea I had today so glad it has some potential.
No idea what to do with it though...
Maybe one of their alien kids get swept out to sea and they fly off in the direction the kid got swept off to.
or, all the people come bk and go into the spaceship and just start dancing and thinking it a new nightclub and the aliens can't get them out.
