Answer

Option C - The beach is beautiful; I would love to go their one day with my family.

Explanation

As per the given option C is an incorrect statement because instead of there the meaning that at somewhere written is it belongs to someone else at any place then the sentence should be 'The beach is beautiful, I would love to go there one day with my family. Rather then stating that 'the beach is beautiful, I would love to go their one day with my family', which is not correct. Definitely then the rest of the statements are correct expect option C.
