And just like that, June has arrived 🌞
The month that officially marks the start of summer in the UK, with the summer solstice falling on Sunday 21 June. It is one of our favourite times of year here on the Yorkshire Coast — local festivals, longer days, warmer weather, and slightly quieter streets and beaches before the school holiday buzz begins in July and August.
Here is what is happening along the coast in June:
