{“summary”: “Mosterd’s Bay at Strand Beach is closing from December 15, 2025, to January 15, 2026. This is for building a strong seawall, keeping everyone safe from big machines. Don’t worry, there are other lovely beaches and fun things to do nearby. Always swim where lifeguards are, and keep an eye on the kids for a super safe holiday!”}
