It has been a long summer of high temperatures and cloudless skies, and it’s still not over! While that may not be great for the amount you’re spending on deodorant and ice creams, it can mean squeezing in a few more adventures.

If you’re planning a day trip, it is probably a good idea to seek out destinations with sea breezes, shaded woodland trails or refreshing stretches of water to increase your chances of enjoying yourself. Here are 30 places that tick those boxes…

South West

Tinside Lido, Plymouth, Devon

The Grade II listed saltwater pool, opened in 1935, continues to be a favourite for locals and tourists alike. The Art Deco bath is positioned to perfectly overlook Plymouth Sound, making it a beautiful place to do some lengths and benefit from the breeze. The sun terrace and café mean the day doesn’t have to end when you’re done cosplaying as Michael Phelps. Adults from £6.60, children from £5.95; tinsidelido.co.uk
