Leeds Travel Guide
United Kingdom
Leeds is a city in the United Kingdom with a population of 624,783. It is an inland urban centre in northern England, so the city itself is not a coastal destination.
Most air travellers arrive through Leeds Bradford Airport, the airport serving the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so Leeds is better suited to city-based trips than to a beach break.
