    Lake Balaton is a hidden gem if you know where to go. We had the pleasure of swimming in a non-touristy spot, far from the usual crowds. The lake is incredibly vast, with the southern part being less crowded—most Hungarians prefer the northern side. The water was perfect for a swim, and we felt completely safe and relaxed. The surrounding villages offer numerous restaurants with a great vibe. This experience was truly unforgettable, and I highly recommend visiting the quieter spots for a more authentic experience.

    Located in the main square, or should I say the main square has been built around this Water Tower.
    Now converted with what appears to be lookout platforms with an Information Bureau at ground level

    Parking is great, if cou come early you can park near to the entrance. Very nice area, clean water, polite staff. Toilets and the bathrooms are clean too.
    There is a small "shop" where you can have good coffee, but no normal food, only sweets, chips and icecream.

    It is very good for a daytrip with kids. Lots of different animals like alpacas, horses, deers, birds, camels and so on. It is not so big but smaller kids will love it. It is around 10-15 min drive outside of Siofok. You will either need a car to get there or use their transport service.
    There is a small cafe with basic food there if you get hungry.

    We were lucky enough to get there just in time, not too much of a lineup, paid the price for the vehicle, and before you knew it we were across. Lovely scenery on the way and very quick to reach the other side.

    You have to go up on a small hill so that can be hard for older people but well worth the view you get up there. Definitely worth a short visit - the entrance fee is small.

    Best beach around lake Balaton with good music and unique beachside. Adore the sand beach and the sunbeds. We return every year.

    Negative - the food is horrible.

    You have two choices in Siofok - pay for the beach or don't pay. Golden beach has everything the pay beach offers but for free! Clean toilets, beer and snacks at the beachside and plenty of pedalo and canoe rental options! Grass may not be quite as well maintained but it's still a great location. Water is shallow for a hundred metres or so and lifeguards are on hand during the day.

    My first time there was in this summer when they had the Farewell to Krishna - Valley, and last week it was my second. The first time I was there was full of life and music and everything was so vivid and playful. And last week it was the opposite; it was quiet, but still beautiful. There were less people, so I liked it so much better the second time. The church is beautiful, I've never seen something this amazing and beautiful (I visited the church in Budapest as well). I was there for work, so I didn't have a guide, but the people I worked with, they told me every little secret I was curious about. Everyone was so kind and helpful. They were always smiling at me and I felt pretty welcomed.
    I recommend it so much, it is really worth it!
