Excenevex
The beach of Excenevex, located on the shores of Lake Geneva in Haute-Savoie, is the only natural white sand beach of the lake. Nestled in a spectacular alpine setting, it offers a unique environment with its pines from the Domaine de Coudrée that give it a surprising Mediterranean atmosphere. It is a spot favored by kitesurfers for its consistent wind and friendly atmosphere.
The spot works exclusively with the Bise, this dry and violent north to northeast wind characteristic of the region. The beach has a grassy area to inflate the kites near the restaurant “Le Vent des Sables,” while the beach itself serves as a take-off and landing zone. Caution: the spot can be very crowded, especially in high season.
