Spiaggia Lido Delle Bionde is a picturesque beach located in Sirmione on Lake Garda, known for its panoramic views of the lake and enchanting natural beauty. The beach's name, "Lido delle Bionde," is derived from the term "biunda," which translates to an enclosed place, a fitting description for the beach's charming cove-like location.
The beach is nestled between Villa Cortine Park and the remnants of Villa Romana, also known as Grotte di Catullo, adding a touch of historical charm to the location. The beach is characterized by its pristine, crystal-clear waters, vibrant greenery, and rocky terrain, making it a visually stunning destination. A prominent feature of the beach is its wooden pier, which provides an easy descent into the water and is a popular spot for observing marine life.
Spiaggia Lido Delle Bionde offers a range of amenities for its visitors. These include rental services for sunbeds, umbrellas, single and double canoes, and SUP boards. There are also free changing rooms available for public use. For refreshments, the beach hosts a bar offering music and happy hour, and cabins. The beach also boasts a restaurant and pizzeria serving a variety of Italian and local cuisine, including dishes made with lake fish, seafood, meat, and vegetarian options, along with a selection of local wines.
Reaching the Spiaggia Lido Delle Bionde is straightforward. Visitors can park their vehicles in one of the several paid parking lots at the entrance of Sirmione or a small free parking lot. From there, they can proceed to the historic center and follow signs for the "panoramic path" towards Rocca Scaligera, with the beach being signposted as Lido di Sirmione along the way. Alternatively, visitors can park in Colombare di Sirmione and take a shuttle bus to Castello di Sirmione, or they can arrive by boat or motorboat from Porto Galeazzi.
Despite its popularity, specific information about crowd levels at Spiaggia Lido Delle Bionde is not readily available. Visitors should also note that the beach does not have a free public toilet and the lake bed is rocky, which may require a cautious approach when venturing into the water.
