Plenty of you were in South Tyneside as these archive Gazette pictures show. Our photographers were busy capturing these great shots from Sandhaven to Bents Park.
Were you pictured enjoying an ice cream or splashing about in the water? We have it all and lots more besides.
As the temperatures look set to remain superbly hot all week, why not enjoy these heatwave memories from across the borough. Take a look.
