A day beside the seaside is always a great day out, especially with this stretch of lovely warm weather we've been enjoying!
From making sandcastles and sunbathing to enjoying a fish and chip lunch, the beach is THE place to be this summer... And some brave souls will be baring all in an effort to get an even tan.
