Is Lomma a good day trip from Malmö?
Yes, in our view it is one of the easiest seaside escapes from Malmö. The Pågatåg train runs to Lomma station, and Lomma kommun puts the journey to central Malmö at around nine minutes. Spend the morning on Lomma beach, have lunch at the harbour on Kajgatan, then continue by bus or bike along the coast to Bjärred for a sunset walk on Långa Bryggan.

Beaches & swimming

Where can you swim in Lomma and Bjärred?
Lomma kommun has four official bathing places, all EU bathing waters tested every other week in season: Lomma norra (Lomma beach), Hamnhusen / T-bryggan by the harbour, Långa Bryggan in Bjärred and Habo Ljung. Lomma beach is the classic choice: long, sandy and shallow. In Bjärred you swim from the shore by Saltsjöbadsparken or from the cold-bath house at the end of Långa Bryggan, which the municipality reports as Blue Flag. Swimming inside the harbour area is forbidden.

With a dog

Can I take my dog to the beach in Lomma?
Yes, outside the bathing season and on much of the coast. Lomma kommun bans dogs from bathing places with jetties and sandy beaches from 1 May to 31 August, but says dogs may visit and bathe along large parts of the coast all year, following the municipality's dog map. From 1 March to 20 August dogs must not run loose where there are wild animals, and nature reserves have their own, sometimes stricter, rules. For off-lead play, use one of the fenced dog parks, such as Löddesnäs, Bjärehov, Industrigatan or Saltsjöbaden.

Rainy days

What can you do in Lomma on a rainy day?
Check the programme at Lomma Folkets Hus for stand-up, music and family shows; book an indoor court at LBTK's tennis hall or Bjärred Padel; settle into a café such as Konditori Syrénen or Borgeby Stenugnsbageri; or warm up in the sauna at the end of Långa Bryggan. The Alnarp museums tell the story of farming in Skåne but open on limited days, so check first. Lund and Malmö are within reach by public transport.
