Stadsadvies

Wat je mee moet nemen

Flip Flops, Suit and Sunblock

Once you arrive, be sure to keep a pair of flip-flops, sunblock, and a swimsuit and towel in your car because chances are, you will want to stop off and take a swim at one of the beaches along the way! Also, a light jacket is a must as well. Many stores and restaurants are very cold inside. A poncho, raincoat, and umbrella are good to have in our summer months. NOTE: Bring water shoes, the lake is not sandy like the ocean, there are clamshells and tree branches so you will want to be careful where you step if you are barefoot.
