Depends on tire and type of sand. I've been successful with 15PSI. I've also had no problems at full pressure. Depends on the type of sand.
The really fine sugar sand demands a lower PSI. If you're stuck...don't keep spinning until you are dug deep. Go ahead and lower your tires down REALLY far, like 8PSI and you'll be amazed that you'll crawl right out...unless you already dug yourself in....

I'm all on the beach a lot around here. It required to air down to 18. Never had an issuse at 18 and I prefer 4-lo. Never get stuck that way. I have done 4-hi and not aired down and the engine works a lot harder.
