The Best of NileGuide
- Beaches might not be the first thing on your agenda when visiting Amsterdam, but in the summer months the city can get very warm and very busy, and a day out to the beach might suddenly seem very appealing. If you've got kids then it's a must. Most of the city beaches, located on lakes, have an area of shallow safe water cordoned off with floats. And for the adults nearly all of the city beaches have great chilled out restaurants and bars where you can kick back and relax. Whatever your style - hippy to hip - there's a beach to suit.
