This place has a charming beach atmosphere with a fantastic park and a quality restaurant. The prices are slightly higher than average, but they are typical for the region. In addition to the lido, there is also the TCS camping site. There are plenty of parking options nearby, and the tube is very convenient with a daily rate of 5 CHF. The water is pleasantly warm, and the beach is well-maintained with good supervision. If you visit on beautiful days or weekends, it's best to come early as it tends to get crowded by midday.

Strandbad Tribschen Lucerne

This beach is perfect for families with children. There is a great water play area for little ones, although the water can be a bit chilly even in the peak of summer. Despite that, it was definitely worth it. The lake was also refreshing, making it a great spot to spend the entire day.
