📍Tropical Beach, Helsingborg: This urban oasis, situated right in the city center, offers a slice of tropical paradise in Sweden. With white sands, palm trees, and azure waters, it’s a beach lover’s dream come true right within the city.  Nearby restaurants and ice cream vendors ensure you’re never too far from refreshments.

📍Varamon Beach, Motala: Known as the “Riviera of Östergötland,” Varamon Beach is home to a kilometer-long stretch of fine sandy beach and a bustling atmosphere with beach volleyball, windsurfing, and picnicking families. It’s a summer haven not to be missed!

📍Åhus Beach, Åhus: Located in the picturesque town of Åhus in the Skåne region, famous for being the birthplace of Absolut Vodka, and you can even visit the Absolut Vodka Museum nearby to learn about the history of this iconic Swedish brand.
