Your rod spec, 3m long and max casting weight 6oz looks as if it should be
OK for beachcasting. However if you intend to do this it raises a number
of
questions.

Most importantly.

What shockleader do you intend to use?

How are you going to tie the shockleader to your main line?

Until you understand these questions and know the answers you should not
venture onto the beach, since you may injure yourself or others nearby.

I am intending to use a 80lb shock leader and tie it to my main line, and
use a 5 or 6oz casting weight.
