Lake BalatonSights

Beach sights in Lake Balaton

  1. Beaches

    As the lake bottom drops away quicker here than in other parts of the lake, Tihany's Beaches are an inviting option. The stretches on the eastern side are the most accessible, which also mean they're the most popular, but if you're looking to escape the crowds head to Sajkod at the peninsula's northwestern point. A small track leads south from this small settlement to a secluded beach; with Tihany's hills as a backdrop, it's one of the most peaceful spots to while away an afternoon, or a week.

  2. Helikon Beach

    Reedy Helikon Beach (south of Városi Strand) is also okay for swimming and sunbathing. It, along with City Beach has a unique view of both the north and south shores of the lake.

    City Beach

    City Beach is okay for swimming or sunbathing, is good for kids and is close to the ferry pier. There's a windsurfing and kitesurfing school here in summer.

  5. Beach

    The postage-stamp-sized Beach is reedy; you would do better to head a few kilometres northeast to Badacsonytomaj or Badacsonyörs for a swim.
