On the beach, they might realize new things about their own powers, desires, or their place in the wizarding world. For example, in some fanfictions, Hermione might discover a new aspect of her magic while feeling the energy of the ocean.

Another theme is the testing of their friendship in extreme and often dark circumstances. Sometimes, they face situations where they have to choose between their loyalty to each other and the greater good.
One common theme is power dynamics. Since they are in a royalty setting, there's often a focus on how Harry and Hermione handle the power that comes with being royalty, whether it's political power or magical power specific to their new positions.
One common theme is the exploration of their relationship. How they grow from friends to betrothed and then to something more. Another theme is often the challenges they face due to their betrothal, like dealing with the expectations of the wizarding community.

For instance, they might introduce spells that were developed later. Also, the theme of changing the course of Hogwarts' history is quite common, like influencing the house system or the way magic is taught at Hogwarts.

Fanfictions often expand on these, making them into full - fledged romantic feelings. Also, there's the theme of them against the world, where they face opposition from others in the wizarding world for their relationship, but still fight for it.
Love and support. The stories often show how Harry and Hermione support each other during the pregnancy.
