Les Bords de l'Arve

Where

Bords de l'Arve, entre Vessy et Gaillard, près de Genève

A stretch of riverbank bathing on the Arve between Vessy and Gaillard, a few kilometres from the Geneva centre, with normal clothing and an easygoing summer crowd. A regional gay travel guide lists it as a gay- and hetero-friendly spot, so the queer-friendly note here is community-reported rather than an official label.
