Kleiner and Großer Wannsee are located in the southwest of the German capital. The shorter term 'Wannsee' generally refers to Großer Wannsee (Greater Wannsee) only, a broadened bay of river Havel. If you find yourself in the area around Berlin and Potsdam, make sure to pay this lake a visit! 

The lake's east side was approved for swimming by the city of Berlin in 1907, hence emerged the popular bathing spot. The spacious bay provides room for everyone, from families to naturists.

The .80 miles of sandy beach have been filled with sand from the Baltic Sea, and makes a great relaxation spot. Beach chairs are for rent and provide you with a shady place on hot days. A waterslide, several bungee trampolines as well as beach volleyball and football fields are available for those who enjoy sports. If you are looking for a quieter day, the lakeside promenade is perfect for a stroll.

Families with children find a playground with lots of space for the little ones. Another option is a boat tour on the lake. Pedal boats and rowboats are available for rent.
