The summer solstice may have dawned under a blanket of fog on Hornsea beach this morning, denying people a view of the Sun rising over the North Sea, but it did little to dampen the atmosphere.
Hundreds of people gathered on the shoreline to mark the longest day of the year, braving the chilly water for an early morning sea dip before warming up around barbecues on the beach.
Many spoke of the invigorating feeling of getting into the sea, as well as the strong sense of community, friendship and wellbeing that keeps them coming back year after year.
