Sun, sea & supper

WITH SALADS AND A BARBECUE READY TO GO, THERE’S NO NEED TO LEAVE THE BEACH AT THE BEST TIME OF DAY

Evening arrives at the coast bringing a hint of regret for departing daytrippers. How much better would it be to be lighting the coals, unpacking impressive salads, stretching out on the now crowd-free, sun-warmed sands and serving aperitifs as the sun dips towards the sea. All soundtracked by lapping waves and ripples of laughter, brought on by a game of beach cricket or volleyball. Join in the merriment or pull up a deckchair (see page 114) and delight in the fact there’s no need to rush home.
