Pool stage

The sixteen beach volleyball men's pairs were seeded into four pools and a four-team bracket was played within each pool. Teams with two wins afer this stage – i.e. the top-ranked side from each pool – advanced directly to the quarter-finals.

Teams losing their first pool match played off, and the losing sides from those games were eliminated. The playoff winners each played a crossover match against a second-placed side from another pool in a repechage to determine the remaining quarter-finalists.
