This brief film is part of a collection that records a family from York's trips to the coast and countryside around North Yorkshire. The films were all shot by the Lord Mayor of York's son and are a child's view of these days before World War Two. This film captures the family at Scarborough, sometimes with the sea in the background as the family pose for the camera. The family of women, children and a grandmother walk along a road carrying items for the beach. There are shots of the younger girl digging in the sand while an older woman, who is most likely her grandmother, sits on a chair watching and laughing. There are close up shots of the younger girl, two women and the young boy. The children dig with spades on the wet sand near the sea.
