Niantic is releasing new content and revamping old features for Pokémon Go Fest 2021, including the rotating habitat feature.
On July 17 from 10am to 6pm local time, habitats will rotate in and out hourly, bringing new Pokémon that will spawn more frequently naturally and when Incense is being used. This feature is typically used as a way to change up what Pokémon appear at different times during an event, which promotes longer play sessions since the bonuses and encounters will continuously change for players.
In total, there are four different habitats that will be active at different times—Jungle, Desert Mountain, Ocean Beach, and Cave. Pokémon appearing during each hourly habitat will coincide with the overarching theme.

For the Ocean Beach habitat, which will rotate at 12pm and again at 4pm local time during the event, players will be more likely to encounter Water-type Pokémon and a few species that might not exactly be at the beach often. If you plan on trying to play throughout the entirety of Go Fest 2021, here are all of the increased spawns for the Ocean Beach habitat.
