With Swift 3.0 you can use extension to simplify your life:

extension MKMapView {

    func topCenterCoordinate() -> CLLocationCoordinate2D {
        return self.convert(CGPoint(x: self.frame.size.width / 2.0, y: 0), toCoordinateFrom: self)
    }

    func currentRadius() -> Double {
        let centerLocation = CLLocation(coordinate: self.centerCoordinate)
        let topCenterCoordinate = self.topCenterCoordinate()
        let topCenterLocation = CLLocation(coordinate: topCenterCoordinate)
        return centerLocation.distance(from: topCenterLocation)
    }

}

With Swift 4.0 :

extension MKMapView {

    func topCenterCoordinate() -> CLLocationCoordinate2D {
        return self.convert(CGPoint(x: self.frame.size.width / 2.0, y: 0), toCoordinateFrom: self)
    }

    func currentRadius() -> Double {
        let centerLocation = CLLocation(latitude: self.centerCoordinate.latitude, longitude: self.centerCoordinate.longitude)
        let topCenterCoordinate = self.topCenterCoordinate()
        let topCenterLocation = CLLocation(latitude: topCenterCoordinate.latitude, longitude: topCenterCoordinate.longitude)
        return centerLocation.distance(from: topCenterLocation)
    }

}
