Sun, sea, and sand! As temperatures rise across Gielinor, there's no better time to escape and enjoy a well-earned beachside getaway.
Sunlight Sands is our new summer event, taking the place of the Beach in this year's calendar. Running from July 6th until August 3rd, it offers many of the familiar activities and seasonal fun from previous Beach events, all brought together in a different environment that's more naturally woven into the world of Gielinor because it isn't in Geilinor! Set in the Land of Sunlight the Sunlight Sands is a little piece of summer goodness to enjoy.
Once you arrive, you'll be able to build sandcastles, fire up the BBQ, fish in rock pools, hook ducks, harvest coconuts from palm trees, flex your pecs, and put your aim to the test at the coconut shy. Each activity offers XP in a variety of skills, giving you plenty of ways to relax while making progress.
As you take part in these seaside activities, you'll earn a brand-new event currency Sandy Sands. Spend your Sandy Sands at Sheldon's store to unlock a whole host of summer-themed rewards, from beachwear and cosmetics to other seasonal goodies. So grab your sunscreen, settle into the sand, and start earning! You can also earn Sandy Sand while you skill in Gielinor so you can still enjoy the summer vibes while working on your goals!
Of course, it wouldn't be summer without everyone's favourite giant enemy crab! Clawdia has also found her way to Sunlight Sands and will regularly burst onto the beach, giving players another opportunity to battle her for various rewards.
