Bellevue Beach

Bellevue Beach sits just north of Copenhagen near Taarbaek and Klampenborg, reached by S-train to Klampenborg Station and then a short walk to the sand. Drivers find free parking nearby, although the lot can fill on warm sunny days, so morning or later arrival works better at peak times. Buses also serve the surrounding area. Access to the shore is described as easy, with level movement from the station area onto sand. The beach surface is sandy with open entry to the sea, and access is open public with no admission fee expected. Toilets and showers are available, with lifeguards around the main beach area and loungers in places. Food and drinks are available, sold near the nude area, where most people remain clothed when buying refreshments, so bring a towel or sarong for cover. Nude use is concentrated at the northern end, adjoining the larger clothed beach. Mornings tend to be calmer and family-oriented, while other times bring a mixed crowd with strong LGBTQ+ presence. The shore is largely open with limited natural shade and exposed to sun and wind, so bring sun protection, water and wind protection and check conditions before a visit. Summer is short and the open shore can be breezy and cool, and the open coastal water is not always ideal for long swims. Facilities in the nude section are more basic than in the main beach, so plan accordingly. Given the easy train link from Copenhagen, half-day visits are common, which suits combining a short stay on the sand with food, showers and an easy return.
