A good place to cool off in the lake. Small sandy beach with an open belt of reeds. It goes into the water shallowly on sandy bottom. There is a bathing island with stairs

With your feet in the sand and a cool drink in your hand, the right Caribbean feeling comes up in the beach bar on the shore of Lake Lübbe.

The old canal connects the Lübbesee with the Zaarsee. Unfortunately this is no longer passable due to the water level. At the confluence there is a small, shady swimming area.
