Summer is up and cities across the globe have planted palm trees and trucked in tons of sand to urban riverfronts to create the feeling of a lazy day at the shore. Urban beaches are a hit and Momondo guides you to our favourites.

My fiance claims that Scandinavia has the highest per capita ownership of convertibles in the world. While I find that extremely hard to believe, he explains that since Swedish summers aren’t that hot and humid, there are actually more opportunities here to drive around, well, topless. I’m still not convinced he’s correct about the cars, but he does have a point that Swedish summers are relatively cool and pleasant. So it may surprise you that even here in the Great North, we’ve got actual beaches throughout our fair city for taking advantage of our extremely long sunshine days.
