citylikeyou — Helgoland — Copenhagen by Anders Arhøj

Copenhagen / Place

In the summertime you can take the Metro directly to the beach. And if you’re over the crowded white trash tanning and blanket sex scene, enter the hidden away mens or womens area located in the big wooden beach bathhouse. Here you can lie naked and enjoy the sun on your private parts while reading a novel or surfing your iPad. Expect lots of gays and lesbos which can be a curse or a party depending on who you are as a person.

Address
Helgoland, Øresund Metro station, Copenhagen, Denmark

Copenhagen / Hotel

Small hotel with a nice lobby bar. I hang here for coffee or drinks with friends. A inner courtyard that reminds me a bit abut Hotel Amour in Paris.

Copenhagen / Beach

As the summer is my favorite time of the year and that the beach is just 15 min bikeride away, I recommend Amager strand. Full of people usually though, but even so it gives a bit of an exotic touch to such a scandinavian city with the sea and the bright sand in the hot summer days.
