There's a fantastic beach in Geneva located right on the shores of Lac Leman. It offers sandy areas and a designated play area for children, as well as convenient facilities for swimmers to change.

The owner of this beach establishment displayed extreme rudeness. Our group was unexpectedly targeted by him with an explosive device due to our noise levels during the night. Despite not addressing the issue at the time, he proceeded to attack our tent the following morning using three small explosive devices. Consequently, our tent has been completely destroyed.
