I've only lived in London for about 7 months, so I'm gearing up for my first summer here. I love being by the ocean, swimming, and walking around on the shore. So, what are the best weekend beach trips to take from the city?

Brighton is closest and easiest to get to. Bournemouth is a doable weekend. Devon and Cornwall are lovely. North Wales is a hike but great if you have a few days (recommend Abersoch).
