Strandbad Mythenquai

It is a nice place to see stunning views and have a quiet moment by the lake. There was a sandy area which was clean. The water was crystal clear and easily accessible for swimming. Plus, a large green area for picnics and sunbathing. There was, also, a diving platform that had three different heights. Early on a weekday in the spring, it was empty of people, but I can see it being very busy during the summer. There were toilets facilities nearby, though I did not use them, so I can not comment on them. It is an open park, so the area is accessible to people who use a wheelchair. There are a choice of hard surface paths or grass.

Ah, Strandbad Mythenquai. How civilized, to stroll its generous grounds now that the gates are open - one can almost hear the gentle lapping of the lake, the laughter of children, the distant sizzle of a grill. When the entrance fee is required, the space becomes positively expansive, as if designed for a more discerning palate, one that appreciates room to breathe, to observe, to savor. Yet, I confess, the local “bad culture” eludes me—perhaps my tastes are not yet acclimatized to Zurich’s particular flavor of leisure. Still, the sand is soft, the water inviting, and the people-watching exquisite. Four stars, with a hint of anticipation for the day I truly acquire the .. taste :)

Most excellent place! All the areas to swim and sunbathe, paddle board rentals, amazing cafeteria, lots of space to spread out and friendly crowd. What a treat! We spent all day here on our visit to Zurich.

One of the best beaches at Zürisee, perfect for enjoying a sunny summer day. In the weekends is crowded.

Zurich lake is beautiful place to visit. The best times are weekends and sunny day. You see a lot of people coming for picnic and party. Really a fun place.

I love the autumn colours of this place. My daughter had a great time playing with the sand and the water. There is a dock where people swim and sun bathe, and a modest playground nearby.

Beautiful View. Great for picnic!

It’s nice and spacious, a lot of big trees to find shade under and it’s easy to get into the water. Two 2️⃣ penalty points: 1) the food. Hiltl is just not Badi-food. I mean Soy Fake Chicken Nuggets? And the buffet style leads to soggy fries. 2) the Beach is more gravel stones and dust than it is sand :( But the children’s area is the best I have seen here in Zurich.
