To quote directly from the book... Strange things happened at midday. The glittering sea rose up, moved apart in planes of blatant impossibility; the coral reef and the few, stunted palms that clung to the more elevated parts would float up into the sky, would quiver, be plucked apart, run like rain-drops on a wire or be repeated as in an odd succession of mirrors.

Sometimes land loomed where there was no land and flickered out like a bubble as the children watched. Piggy discounted all this learnedly as a "mirage"...

Th Beast in Lord of the Flies is not a physical being it is a part of the boys for example fear, and so is brought out more at night when children fears are usually more prominent.
