Summer vacation in the Czech Republic
Landlocked, the Czech Republic cannot be considered a beach destination, but if you find yourself here in the middle of summer, you can sunbathe and swim in a very comfortable way. The famous Czech beach resort is located on the shores of Macha Lake, fifty kilometers from Prague. The lake is man-made, and the history of its appearance goes back to the Middle Ages. In 1366, the reservoir appeared thanks to the construction of a dam on a local river. The lowland in the river valley was flooded, and local residents got the opportunity to breed and fish. Since then, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge, and the shores of Machov Lake have turned into a pretty summer resort.
Two resort villages, which are located close to each other, are called Starye Alloys and Doksy. Each of them is extremely popular from May to September, when the lake is in high season. Several beaches were built on the shores of the reservoir back in the 20s of the last century.
Starosplavsky Varadero is the name of the central beach of the village of Starye Splavy. The sand here really has a delightful snow-white shade, which can boast of the best Caribbean resorts. On the beach in Starye Rafts, it is very comfortable to relax with children. On the lake there is a natural water park with water slides, trampolines and other attractions, and on the shore there are playgrounds with fabulous houses and a special “splash pool”. Active young people also like to relax on the beach in Stary Rafts. For those who are not used to sitting still, here you can go rock climbing on the iceberg artificial slide, play beach volleyball, ride a catamaran or boat on the lake. The beach is equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay - changing rooms, sun umbrellas, picnic tables.
Doksy has its own central beach, and its guests can count on a varied and comfortable stay. Parasols and sun loungers, a changing room and a playground, a volleyball court and a boat dock - it is a pleasure to spend time with the whole family on the beach of the resort. The water temperature in Makhov Lake rises in the height of summer to + 23 ° C, and the swimming season on Doksov beach lasts from early June to mid-September.
On the southern shore of Makhov Lake there is a beach "Kluchek", where lovers of calm and quiet rest prefer to spend their time. The beach is sandy, and from the infrastructure there are only sun umbrellas, a changing room and a small cafe with drinks and snacks.
The eastern shore of the lake is given to those who love traveling with their own cars. There are several campsites with parking lots, barbecues and picnic tables. The northernmost part of the eastern shore of Lake Machova is occupied by a tent camp and a nudist beach "Borny".
The Macha Lake area is ideal for hiking. Kilometers of routes are laid along the shores, which hundreds of tourists at the resort pass every day.
You can get to all four beaches of the resort by boat, which runs along the lake from the pier in Starye Splavy. If you buy a boat ticket, you will not need to pay for the entrance to the beaches.
