Here in Liverpool, we’ve had a pretty impressive spell of sunny, warm weather and it looks like it’s here to stay - for the next few days at least.
The glorious sunshine has got me thinking about all of the reasons why I love spring and summer in Liverpool so much, and why I’m so excited to enjoy the warmer months in my favourite city (and it’s gorgeous surrounding areas).
So, I’ve put together a list of 21 reasons why Liverpool is the best city for enjoying spring and summer. Let me know your favourite things to do when the sun is shining.
1. Sunset walks around the docks

4. Sunset walks around West Kirby
West Kirby Marine Lake is ideal for a lovely walk, taking around 20 minutes to walk one lap. It's amazing during the warmer months and offers gorgeous sunsets. | Emma Dukes
