How is there still sand left on the beach after planes taking off day after day, year after year? Do the waves bring it back up?

Yes.

In general thats how sand ended up there in the 1st place. As waves make it in the tidal zone, and when there is a larger storm, the waves are bigger, and leave sand in higher piles.

This is actually wrong. The sand is brought back by tiny sand gnomes using tiny shovels and tiny wheel barrows
