Beach soccer has been an event at the Bolivarian Beach Games since the first edition of the games in 2012 in Lima, Peru. One event is held, the men's competition.
The event is contested between the members of ODEBO (Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru and Venezuela) who choose to enter, plus other invited neighboring nations who are not ODEBO members.
Paraguay are the most successful team, having claimed two gold medals and are the only nation to have claimed any medal at all three games to date.
