A beach in Paris? You bet. We already knew about Paris Plages, and now there are also the beaches of the Été du Canal, offering numerous swimming spots or water activities during the months of July and August 2026. For entry, simply follow the course of the Ourcq Canal, from the banks of Parc de la Villette.
Following the Canal, you’ll quickly reach Pantin, where the urban nautical park opens up a world of summer fun all August long with pedalos, paddles, and zodiac dinghies available for rent... A little further on, the town of Bobigny hosts Bobigny Plage in July at Parc de la Bergère. There you’ll find a water-play area with interactive games and a host of sports installations... In Noisy-le-Sec and Bondy, you can also try your hand at water sports, discover zodiac cruises at the nautical village in Aulnay-sous-Bois, or set off on a kayak hike from Sevran’s Parc de la Poudrerie. Not to mention the plethora of sports activities, countless floating concerts, and playful, festive, and athletic entertainments for all ages. The guinguettes will also be part of the scene for a 100% holiday vibe, at Pavillons-sous-Bois, the Canal Summer’s brand-new hotspot, or at the Guinguette des Grandes serres in Pantin. In short, Summer 2026 along the Ourcq Canal looks promising!
