A beautiful bathing beach for Lake Garda (of course rocky -> aqua shoes recommended) with a kiosk, toilet and beach shower. You can also rent beach loungers with umbrellas, pedal boats, kayaks or stand up paddles. There is also a beach volleyball court and trampolines. Trees provide shade in hot weather.
And not far away, you can eat super delicious ice cream at Mr. ICE.
