Meaux Plage 2023: free swimming and activities at Meaux-les-Bains get underway

Meaux Plage will be back from July 8 to August 27, 2023 to give you a taste of the vacations. Meaux Plage has become the summer rendezvous for many Meldois, Ile-de-France residents and tourists alike, and has been designed so that everyone, young and old, can enjoy all the pleasures and activities of the beach, in the heart of the Parc naturel du Patis. Imagine a beach of fine white sand in the heart of the Île-de-France region, bordered by clear emerald water. It's a real escape at the gateway to Paris.

With supervised swimming until 8pm on the banks of the Marne, young and old alike can cool off in complete safety. Six lifeguards supervise the swim, and according to the sports director, between 500 and 600 people take a dip every day in the 60m-long, 15m-wide, almost 4m-deep pool. And to complete the sandy beach atmosphere, dozens of tons of river sand are added every year for the comfort of bathers.
