Every year the coastline of Atleus is opened for just 4 months each year for regular Atleus citizens to go on holiday.


Its extremely hard to book a holiday and get an approved permit for a beach holiday and the waiting list is long. The government permits only 400,000 visits to the beach a year. On September 1st the coastline will officially be closed off to the public.

The Atleus government got strict on the beach ever since a mass exodus of "Boat people" after 2001. The beach was usually open all year round until a ferry was highjacked by its passengers and fled to neighboring Delesa

15,000 people are scheduled to visit the coastline in the coming days before the coast closes for another 8 months where it will be opened again on May 1st 2009

"I'm 72, I dont have much longer left and I want to see the ocean one more time before I die. the last time I saw the ocean was in early 2000. The government cancelled my last permit because my son committed a crime in 2004 but I am applying again now" said the old woman
