A new study has found that Scotland has the best beaches in Britain - as people are expected to flock to the coast as another heatwave is expected.
The research, conducted on behalf of Chicks Gold, analysed Tripadvisor reviews to find the highest-rated beaches in the UK.
Beaches rated four stars or higher were ranked based on the percentage of five-star reviews compared to the total number of reviews.
Here are the top 10.
