Is sea air actually that go for you, everyone seems to have the concept that sea air is great fresh air, but how good is it? Let’s start with the good points to going on a beach holiday, and why it is good for your health, then we can make a decision later…

 

What’s better than going to the beach and having a good swim?

Coupled with swimming in the sea is the sea water itself, sea water is very good for your skin. Levels of salt are high in the sea and help to cleanse acne and tidy up permanent scars.
