Plage des Eaux-Vives is a public swimming beach on Quai Gustave-Ador, beside Geneva Lake. Its mix of sand and pebbles gives you room to swim, sunbathe or watch the swans on the water. Outdoor showers and public toilets are on site, and cafés are nearby. The lakefront is a good place to catch the sunset, though the beach gets busy on warm days and has limited shade. Bring a sunshade and shoes for the pebbled shore.
