Long weekends are a great opportunity to enjoy some extra leisure time, engage in our favorite activities, and even try something new. With Marine Day and Health and Sports Day upon us, there’s no better time than to get outdoors and be active.
This year, the date of Marine Day has been changed to Thursday, July 22 to coincide with the opening ceremony of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The ceremony actually takes place a day later on Health and Sports Day, which aims to promote athleticism and an active lifestyle to achieve a healthy mind and body. The holiday commemorates the opening day of the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, and was first celebrated in 1966.
In the spirit of the Olympics and to show appreciation for the oceans, we’ve put together a list of outdoor and sports related activities and deals that you can take advantage of this weekend.
