THIS is the sandy brainteaser that challenges you to spot all of the differences whilst trying to catch a tan.

Everybody can see the holidaying animals enjoying their day in the sunshine, but only those with 20/20 vision and a high IQ can spot all 7 differences in 11 seconds.

The teaser will remind you of the last time you were on the beach, which will either be a good or bad memory depending on your opinion on beaches.

You might love the relaxing sound of the waves crashing on the shore, or perhaps you find the screaming children off-putting.

If so, be grateful that there are no children in this scene, just friendly-looking animals.

Sources claim that the brown bear reading the book says it's a real page-turner.

What makes this teaser difficult is the amount of animals on the sand, who all look quite similar.

The lack of variety to them makes differences more difficult to spot.

The key to this one is to focus less on the animals and more on what objects surround them.

Are you ready, because the clock is ticking!

If you're struggling, a hint would be to start by looking at what food is being eaten on the beach.

Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eye sight by allowing you to see small print.

Escape London says puzzles can also give your mind a great workout and may "boost your brain's activity" which "reduces the risk of dementia."
