It’s summer time! Want to relax on a Paris Beach? ;)
The 12th edition of Paris Plages (Paris Beaches) is back from July 19th to August 17 2014! For a whole month, The Seine’s banks become pedestrian and the city beaches are spread across three spots: Louvre/Pont de Sully, Port de la Gare and Bassin de la Villette in the 19th district. All Paris beaches are open non-stop from 9.00 am to midnight and are accessible for disabled people for the most part.
Paris Plages offer activities that everyone will enjoy, especially if you're visiting Paris with kids! Here is the programme : sunbaths, picnics, sandy beaches, deckchairs, nebulization gardens, free evening concerts, drink stands, ice cream sellers, open-air cafés, beach volley nets, rowing boats, kayaks, canoes, pedal boats, dinghies, bowls pitches, ballroom dancing, tai chi, table football, ping pong, suspended swimming pool, rollerblade, wall climbing… The perfect event that summarizes Paris in the summer, don’t you think? Just chill and enjoy ;)
