The Galetas Beach, Lake beach in Aiguines, France.
The Galetas Beach extends along the Sainte-Croix Lake shore, offering grass areas and pebble sections for different preferences of beach activities.
The beach emerged in 1975 following the creation of Lake Sainte-Croix, France's second-largest artificial lake measuring 22 square kilometers.
Local regulations maintain the natural character of the area by prohibiting motor boats, enabling visitors to swim and paddle in undisturbed waters.
The beach provides summer lifeguard services, first aid stations, designated parking areas, and picnic facilities for families and groups.
Located at the entrance of Verdon Gorges, the beach grants direct access to limestone cliffs and multiple water-based activities in emerald waters.
