Places to stay
When people go on holiday they stay in various places: some go to hotels, some rent an apartment, some prefer to go camping and sleep in a tent.
The different arrangements for staying in a hotel are: room only, bed and breakfast, half-board (bed, breakfast and one other meal) or full – board (all meals). A holiday when you cok for yourself is called a self-catering holiday.
On the beach
Many people spend their holiday in seaside resorts (towns by the sea for tourists, e.g. St. Tropez, Sochi, Anapa, etc.) where they can go to the beach every day. You sometimes get a gentle breeze (a light pleasant wind) from the sea, which helps to cool you down on hot days, but it can also burn you.
Seaside activities
I like to go for a walk along the cliffs. On sandy beaches, I often play volleyball. I sometimes go windsurfing, snorkeling or diving. I don’t swim much but I like to have a paddle (just put my feet in the sea). My sister likes to have a swim in the sea, but not if it is very rough.
In the sun
Many people go to the beach to sunbathe (lie in the sun) and get a suntan, when the body goes an attractive brown colour from the sun; we can also say, be brown. This can be dangerous, and you should always put on suntan lotion (cream or oil to stop your skin burning). This will also help you to get a tan and protect your skin (keep your skin safe). If you don’t protect your skin, you may get sunburn (the skin becomes red and very painful). For total protection, use sunblock.

Про кенгуру
Kangaroos are large marsupials that are found only in Australia. They are identified by their muscular tails, strong back legs, large feet, short fur and long, pointed ears. Like all marsupials, a sub-type of mammal, females have pouches that contain mammary glands, where their young live until they are old enough to emerge.
Кенгуру большие сумчатые, которые находятся только в Австралии. Они идентифицируются по их мышечным хвостам, сильным задним ногам, большие ноги, короткая шерсть и длинные, заостренные уши. Как и все сумчатые, суб-виды млекопитающих, у самок есть мешочки, которые содержат молочные железы, где их младенец питается там же, пока он не станут достаточно взрослым.
