Baby-Plage

Baby-Plage is a public beach located in the bustling heart of Geneva, Switzerland, specifically in the Eaux-Vives neighborhood. This charming spot is nestled by the shimmering waters of Lac Leman, and it offers a stunning view of the sunset, making it a favored location for winding down the day.

The beach is characterized by a unique blend of sandy and grassy areas, along with an extended pebble stretch that runs approximately 400 meters along the lake. The pebbles can get notably warm during sunny days, and visitors are advised to take necessary precautions when treading this area. Despite the lack of mature trees and consequent limited shade, especially past the sandy area, visitors can enjoy relaxing on the grassy spots.

Originally reserved for children, Baby-Plage has been open to visitors of all ages since 2007. It boasts a children's playground, making it an enjoyable place for younger visitors. During the summer, the beach and its surroundings become particularly vibrant as part of the "Le Quai" event, and lounge chairs are provided for public use.

The beach is equipped with a range of amenities, including futuristic, clean, and odor-free toilets, and places to rinse off your feet. However, it does not offer changing rooms, showers, or cabins. Adjacent to the beach, visitors can find fast food and ice cream spots.

Baby-Plage is conveniently located next to a pier. This makes it easily accessible for those traveling by boat. Despite its popularity, especially on sunny days, visitors can usually find a space to sit down on the grass or pebble beach. The beach is open year-round and entry is free, making it an affordable and accessible location for locals and tourists alike.
