Absolutely awesome! I almost don‘t wanna share this with anyone since this place is amazing! There was like almost no one when we went for a morning swim, and even on a saturday afternoon the beach wasn‘t even half full🤩 Also the water is super clear and a nice temperature

Very sad how dirty it was. The beach was very dirty (the sand with garbage) and sadly the wind brought some green-blue algae (cyanobacteria) it looked terrible. Not sure if it is only the heat / warm weather or if the lake is really contaminated. Very sad for such a beautiful place.
