The beach is great for swimming and boasts a beautiful, spacious lawn. There's a barbecue area, but we were disappointed to find that there was no wood available initially. Unfortunately, there are no changing rooms or lockers to store your belongings. Be aware that parking is exorbitantly expensive - we only had a 10 franc coin and ended up with a fine. Parking is scarce and they seem to be very diligent about checking, likely due to a financial need.

Today, I went to Ipsach bathing beach on a Sunday and paid 10 Sfr for parking, which costs 2.50 Sfr per hour. However, during our parking time, we and around 40 other vehicles received a ticket for 120.-Sfr for parking on the mowed turf of the field, as there was no parking available. Although I understand that parking there was not allowed, I think 40 Sfr would have been a fairer penalty. This experience has made me hesitant to visit this beach again, especially as the parking lot is small and crowded. It's estimated that the municipality of Ipsach earns 168000.-Sfr in daily revenue from 40 vehicles paying 120.-Sfr each. Despite my mistake of overlooking the no-parking sign, I was surprised to see so many cars parked there already and paid my fair share. The beach itself is mostly stones, and the lawn was only decent up to the parking lot. Overall, I don't think I'll be returning to Ipsach bathing beach anytime soon.
