Latest reviews on Bracciano Lake's beaches

Lido Dei Cigni beach
10 Daniel Smith

This beach on the shore of lake Bracciano is absolutely amazing. You can park for free outside of town along the roadside or choose to park in the car park in town for a very affordable price. We opted to park in town (via Amalfi) for just €2 from 11:30 until 16:00. It's only a 20-meter walk to the beach and a quick five-minute stroll to the town center. The sand is volcanic and has a beautiful black color, and the water is incredibly clear.

Vigna di valle
8 Lorenzo Marcelli

The beach in Anguillara has the highest number of bathing establishments. It is well-maintained and kept clean. Additionally, there are ample paid parking spaces available since parking on the road is not allowed. When there is no north wind, the water is exceptionally clean. What makes this beach even more appealing is its shallow depth of nearly 100 meters, making it a perfect paradise for children. Moreover, there are numerous clubs and bars catering to various preferences and needs.

Spiaggia Dei Gabbiani-Dog Beach
8 Kai Renzo

This small, wild beach is the perfect spot to bring your four-legged friends. They can run, swim, and socialize with other dogs, and the water is crystal clear. To get there, you'll have to take a small path that runs alongside the aeronautical museum. You can park your car along the avenue that leads to the museum entrance. Unfortunately, human negligence has caused the area to be littered with uncollected waste, or waste that has been collected and then abandoned in plastic bags.
