What the beach with umbrella 🏖️ (vacation) emoji means
🏖️ is the beach with umbrella: sand, sea and a striped parasol. It is the vacation emoji — beach days, holidays, out-of-office replies, “take me back” — and the closest thing to a sand emoji. 🏝️ desert island is a lone island with a palm: getaways, castaway jokes, “desert island discs”. ⛱️ is the umbrella alone. All were added in Emoji 1.0 (2015). Companions: 🌊 wave, 🌴 palm tree, the whole summer emoji list.
