The lake beaches are generally gravel strips with varying levels of facilities. Some cities have created lidos where you pay a small fee to enter private enclosure. These are well kept and offer more amenities such as showers, toilets and refreshments. The water temperature can be comfortably warm during the summer months, with Lake Monate enjoying the highest temperatures. Our favorite lidos are "Ultima Spiaggia" and "Il larice" on the Lake of Monate.
