What kind of paint do I use for walls at beach?

your question is not complete

Any good quality washable wall paint can help hide handprints. Why punish yourself with white? Pick almost any color and buy yourself some time between cleanings. Best wishes 😇

What is the surface you are painting?

sheet rock. Do I use eggshell, satin, ?

Generally speaking, the shinier the paint, the easier it is to clean. There's gloss, semi-gloss, satin, eggshell, flat. I like satin finish for easy cleaning, but it does have a little sheen, and will highlight imperfections in the wallboard. Eggshell is a bit duller, so will not catch the light as much, and will not show imperfections as well.

Also, a hint from personal experience--stay away from yellow. I painted a dining area light yellow, and it just would not cover the darker paint and wall imperfections underneath.
