The town's emblem, the Jolly Fisherman, created by John Hassall in 1908, and the associated slogan "Skegness is so bracing", have been indelibly associated with the town and its appeal as a holiday destination. Today, Skegness continues to attract families and tourists with its sandy beaches, amusements, and vibrant atmosphere.
