The Heeler clan is headed to the beach. Bingo, Bluey, and Bandit all get there a little bit earlier as they ride on a skateboard, and mom is behind them, taking her time, walking at her own pace. The family then has a great day at the beach and half way through the day, Chilli decides to go for another walk down the beach. Bluey is confused why she likes walking by herself, and Chilli says she doesn’t, she just does. So she starts walking. Bluey then finds a shell and decides she wants to go show mom, Bandit lets her run to mom, which is one of the first moments of independence for Bluey here, and she has an adventure as she runs a solid mile on the beach chasing after her mom. They meet and Bluey shows her the shell and she learns about independence and the niceness of a hug.
