It allows families and friends to share a nice day together. My Australian friend shared this tradition with me. He says that his family has gone to the beach every start of summer since he was just a little boy.
This tradition is connected directly to their beaches. Almost all of their beaches will be fully packed on the first day of Summer. This is a great opportunity for many people to reconnect with nature and their environment. Some activities people will participate in on the beach are barbecues, surfing, snorkeling, scuba diving and different sports games!
