Zürich’s first beach, opened in 1922, still offers 250 meters of sandy shore and an extensive sunbathing lawn. Space is also reserved for both non-swimmers and children. The Mythenquai beach also offers table tennis, sports fields and playing fields, barbecue areas, a shop selling swimwear, swimming gear and games equipment, body care products and swimming articles for rent – not to mention the bookstands from the Pestalozzi Library Zürich. The fine beach sand, direct access to the lake, and the magnificent view will remind you of a far-off holiday island.
