The first day of summer is also known as the Summer Solstice — the longest day of the year!
It usually falls between June 20 and June 22 depending on the Earth’s tilt and orbit.

On this day, the Northern Hemisphere gets the most direct sunlight — time to soak it up (with SPF, of course!).
Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians and Druids celebrated the solstice with feasts, festivals, and rituals.
After the solstice, days gradually get shorter… but summer fun is just beginning.
