This summer, your nearest beach will transform into an international food market. And it doesn't matter where you live — be it near St Kilda, Bondi or Broadbeach.

How? As of now, Deliveroo, the food delivery service that transports tasty meals from your favourite eateries directly to your door, can travel to the sand. And, more specifically, right to your beach towel.

That's right, next time you're sprawled out on the beach catching some rays and hunger pangs, you won't have to go anywhere. Jump on your phone, make your order and, somehow or other, your faithful Deliveroo driver will be at your side. Yes, this is going to be very, very interesting to watch on Bondi Beach on a stinking hot day in January when beachgoers number in the thousands and thousands.

The food delivery app is now delivering to 150 beaches around the country, having recently launched its services in Hobart, the Sunshine Coast, Cairns and Newcastle.

To launch this new adventure, Deliveroo is doing its bit for the environment, by inviting you to a big clean-up. If you're in St Kilda, Melbourne, or Broadbeach on the Gold Coast this Sunday, December 2 — or at Sydney's Bondi Beach on Saturday, December 1 — head to your nearest beach, where Deliveroo ambassadors will hand you a teal bucket. Fill it with rubbish, give it back, and you'll score five bucks worth of Deliveroo credit.

UPDATE: November 30, 2018 — Deliveroo has changed the date of its Sydney cleanup, at Bondi Beach, from Sunday, December 2 to Saturday, December 1. We've edited this article to reflect that.
