About Nordau Beach
Nordau Beach is the city’s religious beach, with separate bathing for men and women, and one of the four beaches with lifeguards outside the summer season. The official bathing season runs from early May to October, when lifeguards are on duty for most of the day; swim only where they are on duty and the flag allows.
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Nordau Beach before you go.
