Clean, gorgeous and stunning beach for summer to look at the blue lake and enjoy the sun-ray. Parkings are available but might be a challenge for weekends Many benches are provided by the city to stop, sit and relax.

We started our day quite late, but still were able to enjoy our 1hr walk along the lake. It was a humid day, but at least the sun was behind clouds, which was nice. If you start your walk from the bay and head east along the water you can make a lot of miles!!! Parkings are convenient across the bay, only residents are allowed to park close by, but it's not a problem. Love the view!!!
