We're here to tell you about the beaches in London.
Every summer, beach bars pop up along the Thames, on London rooftops, at hotel airports, tucked away down London's alleys and squares. The Roundhouse used to have a beach bar every summer for years. The Southbank still does one every year. If you're back from holiday and looking for a beach not near but in central London, you'll be spoiled for choice.
