Description: Thanks to Riaan Stals this has been identified as a mosquito, probably not from the beach at all and rather developing in the stagnant water. As it happens I brought one to work and it developed into an adult overnight (still in the tupperware I carried it in). I've updated the observation details accordingly. Original comment, retained for interest value: Collected by accident, presumably with a collection of kelp and mussel shells. Collection was left in bucket outside that got filled with rainwater and some days afterwards the first stage was noticed.
