For sand on the road and rough pavement, I'd say 30-32 mm tires with some tread would be fine (more or less cyclocross tires) though you can always go bigger. Main thing on sand is don't lean over in the corners, and brake before them not in them. I got out on the road today here in Maine, with residual sand on the road. I looked at the bikes you cited online and liked the Felt better, though the specs I saw said 32mm tires where you said 50, so maybe what you were looking at was fdifferent. Online the Felt is more of a fitness bike and the Giant more comfort. Have fun!
