Bela Crkva lakes, A lake in Serbia.

Bela Crkva lakes are a group of six larger and several smaller artificial lakes southwest of Bela Crkva, formed by gravel extraction from the Pannonian Basin. The Main or City lake, closest to town, has pebbly beaches, restaurants and a diving and sailing school. Vračev Gaj lake has a campsite for about 200 tourists, while Šljunkara is the largest lake, with a large beach and an island.

Gravel extraction in this area began in 1904, and the deep pits left behind slowly filled with rainwater and groundwater to form the lakes seen today. After World War Two, machines replaced hand labor and horses, and the extracted gravel was used for road building and river embankment work.

The lakes take their name from the town of Bela Crkva, not from any island church. Each summer up to 5,000 visitors line the shores, and the season includes events such as the Carneval of the flowers and Bela Crkva's apple picking. The Vračev Gaj lake has a campsite with 200 spots.

The lakes are easy to reach by car or public transport, and the main beaches have parking areas nearby. Summer is the busiest time, so visiting outside the peak season means fewer people along the shores and easier access to the water.

In 1957, a catfish weighing around 70 kilograms (about 150 pounds) was caught in the main lake, and another large specimen was reported in 1988. Since then, an annual fishing tournament called Hunt on Besi has been held, where anglers compete to catch this fish that has since grown even larger.
