Seaside Frolics is a family board game from 1986, designed by Peter Sumpter and published by a company in the United Kingdom, with San Serif Print Promotions Ltd and Halcyon Games named among its publishers. Two to six players, aged seven and up, visit an Edwardian seaside town and try to see as many sights as they can. Each sight lets them collect a postcard, and every postcard carries a different value. More than two hundred and fifty miniature postcards come in the box, produced to suggest the atmosphere of the period. The basic mechanism is to throw the dice and move, but players have to judge which attractions they have time to see within a limited period. A game takes about forty-five minutes, and the mechanics listed are roll and move and set collection.
