User reviews
"This beach is conveniently located within a 5-minute walk from the car park or railway station. Due to the rapid decline of the lake bed, parents must be vigilant when their children are swimming. It is also an ideal spot for scuba divers, featuring both wooden wrecks and a newer sailing boat."
Kira Andersson
"This beach is a peaceful spot with a shower and changing room. The sand is soft and the water is stunning. It's a short walk away and doesn't have any amenities like a bar or deck chairs, but we really enjoyed it."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Spiaggia di Castelveccana (Varese) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Spiaggia di Castelveccana (Varese) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Spiaggia di Castelveccana for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
