It is difficult to think of any entertainment and activities when you are on the beach.

The beach is really lovely, but it's unfortunate that there is no bus transportation available between Yvoire or Geneva. Without a car, it's not easily accessible.

6 Pleasant

It's a crowded place, but honestly, the beach itself is top-notch despite the unattractive and unclean restroom facilities.

Vino Tress

6 Pleasant

This beach is a great spot for those who enjoy sandy shores, shallow waters, and have children. You'll find that you tire easily from walking before you can even start swimming. Additionally, the water's clarity is compromised due to the presence of sand.

The water in the lake is exceptionally clean, especially if you venture a bit deeper. There are sandy areas and patches of grass, along with restroom facilities and picnic tables, providing everything necessary for a wonderful day!
