Tropical Corner in Cologny

You must come here if in Geneva to watch the sunset. Food and beer is available. Seemed bereft of tourists and known by locals mainly which is ideal for a quiet but idyllic way to enjoy the evening while watching patrons perform water sports.

Excellent Their burgers are seriously good 👍

Place where you think you're on vacation!!! I had the impression of being in the Caribbean. The paddle rental team is very welcoming.

This place is magical and tropical. There are surfing and SUP courses for all levels. You can also swim here in the crystal clear waters of Lake Geneva. Wonderful place with terrace and bars.

Great towed foil course with Antoine, but really average reception. I had an appointment at 12 p.m. and I arrived at 11:45 a.m., there were 2 people at reception: a lady on the phone and a young man who told me to go change then equip myself and come back in waiting for Antoine to be available. I was back 5-10 minutes later and waited in front of their counter for Antoine to come and introduce himself. Having no idea what time it was (my things were in the locker room), I ended up asking them if Antoine was finally available and the lady said to me "ah, well you're late". I had been in front of her (and her colleague who had welcomed me) for 15 minutes, 3m from her. In short, not a great welcome. But the course was great. Also, don't ask people to equip themselves, we don't know your equipment, we don't know what you need: the young man told me to just take a vest. I asked for a shorty to be more comfortable, he told me "it's not necessary, the water is good". That's already not the question... But above all, as I did towed foiling (no wind for wingfoiling), Antoine gave me a full wetsuit + a vest. Also, the locker rooms are aging. The place is great, I will come back. But please pay attention to the reception!

Wow, great team! I tried pumpfoiling and the place is really great for beginners but also for the more advanced! Have fun 🤙

Super nice! Long queue at the bar though

Good equipment for windsurfing, good spot and majority of the team very friendly! On the other hand, the man who cashed us was particularly aggressive and derogatory without any valid reason. In particular, I received a derogatory remark about my outfit which was totally inappropriate. Common feeling of being taken for idiots when we were just looking forward to discovering sailing. I know the customer base can be disrespectful sometimes and maybe this person was having a bad day but if you don't want to rent equipment to beginners don't do it, doing it and then being passive-aggressive is not a good idea. all professional.

Ideal for starting a long swim.

Excellent place to enjoy the lake, have a drink, eat something and play music

The rocks are a little hard to sit on and for the butt By the way, the venue's playlist is GREAT! What a great atmosphere!

BEST BEACHY AFTERWORK NAUTICAL SPORTSCENTER CHILLING SUNSET HOTSPOT AROUND GENEVA LAKE 😎🤙🏽🏄🍹🍻🍔🍟🍷🌴🌅

A really nice place to practice with a top team 👌

The place to-be during Summer time

Great evening of August 5, 2022

Very relaxed atmosphere with good burgers and music. Nice people and a good after work hangout spot. Rent a stand up paddle board to enjoy the lake.

We rented paddles for an hour, fair prices and very pleasant staff. I recommend

Nice place, free entry, you can easily swim. Good atmosphere with the bar where you can hydrate. The bottle of water at 4.- is a little expensive, but a place to know

A brilliant place for paddleboarding - had such a good time - staff were laid back but helpful and rental prices weren't too bad especially for Geneva.

Always excellent teachers, friendly staff and great vibe!

Very nice little bar, relaxed and good atmosphere. The spritz is very good and thanks to the team for the burger while the kitchen was closed. The view of the lake at night is beautiful, however access is not easy to discover. We searched for a good fifteen minutes but it was worth the price.

Very nice place, cool staff members

Geneva institution and oasis of happiness during the hot months. A must-visit for a paddle tour, try foiling or just for a drink.

A very nice place to sit by the water and drink a cocktail. The food is simple but delicious, fair prices. Dogs tolerated on a leash, but it is forbidden to put them in the water in the paddle/boards/wing surfs starting area, the only area offering gentle slope access to the lake. Preferred in this case to settle on the rocks, either along this access ramp, or which adjoin the tropical corner enclosures. Friendly and smiling staff

Empty burgers! Otherwise nice setting

Too bad they are disorganized for the Yoga Paddle, the link does not work, we cannot find the online registration and even less the contact of the teacher or the e-mail.

Not enough toilets, people spend more than 30 minutes at an evening when they could be enjoying and consuming. Not normal, organize yourself better

If you like swimming, windsurfing or just chilling on a paddle, along with some good food and music, then this is the place for you! Furthermore, they propose 1h lessons in windsurfing and paddle. The staff/teachers are very experienced, give great and helpful tips and are just really cool and friendly. They also have a cool outdoor bar and propose drinks and food, all while listening to cool and chill music.

Very relaxed place with a small pebble beach, where it is pleasant to eat a small burger (very good indeed, including the vegetarian one) with roast potatoes and a small salad, while sipping a beer with a view of the lake. Unpretentious place where you can relax after a day of work!

Bad experience, one of the waiters was very unpleasant... there are ways to address customers, shameful!

My favorite place for lunch breaks and after-hours -work in summer when there is sunshine ☀️... Friendly service staff, despite the crowds and the queue to order. As for the sports activities staff, they are professional and TOP! THANKS

Top, best place around Lake Geneva

A place that gives me everything I expect to spend my vacation in Geneva Swiss Life Yes ITS begins Here.

Amazing chilled vibe. Sunset views were stunning! Choice of music great! There were families there too

Best windsurf-wingfoil-pladdle-chill place in Geneva.

A worthy experience that one can have, it is safe and when lec leman is calm one should try to paddle. Prices are okay to try for yourself but if you are troop of students you might get some discount. Have a great day

a “fresh” juice that is too sweet, undrinkable chf 7. I bring it back to the bar. I then order a coffee and I am told “chf 3.50”. Louise the waitress was very arrogant when I told her that commercial behavior was known here.

Magnificent spot to enjoy a delicious Ludo special croque monsieur 😜 A must-see in Geneva! Aperol in the sun, the best 👌🏼

Discovered the spot while passing by on a paddle. Super friendly team and good Windsurf lessons. 100% satisfied

Good atmosphere, music, bar, great spot by the lake… In short, we love it ✨❤️

Idyllic place. Professional and pleasant staff. Good food, drinks at good prices. Perfect 👌🏼

Good clientele, not too much fuss at the entrance... Not really a place to dance though... And the sounds are nothing tropical

Friendly beach next to the famous Geneva beach. Free access with changing rooms, showers and WC. Very good bar with warm welcome as well as the rental center for windsurfing, kitesurfing, wake boarding and water skiing.

Very pleasant spot. The big downside is the drinks menu: only industrial beers, nothing that really has any taste or originality...

Places of total relaxation 👍👌👍👌

Superb place! It’s a shame that the beach is privatized, this takes away its main asset.

Fun spot, wine not by the bottle and rather from tap and served from a pitcher. Losing a star due to ENORMOUS wait times in queues (an hour).

Relaxed place with nice staff. Food and drinks quite expensive.

Very nice location, you have the feeling of being in a "summer holiday beach style" chiringuito with very pleasant background music

To have a good time relaxing, tanned, bathed, and aperitif 🍹 and good music 🎶

80 per cent of the staff we interacted with had their mask hanging below the nose. They just had a superspreader event a few weeks back. It would be nice if the staff took the health of their customers a little more seriously.

Very nice place to go Stand Up Paddling and grab a drink

Nice place to get some food during summer and also rent Stand up Padle Board and other stuffs

Nice place for sunset. Chill and decontract...

Truly a magnificent place. But the bar manager is a disaster. Sad that someone like him becomes chef!

After having to ask for the burger menu to find out the prices, I decide to order a cheeseburger with bacon accompanied by potatoes. The price indicated was 18 francs. However, after submitting my order, the waitress I dealt with asked me for 19 francs. I show him the burger menu and tell him there must be a mistake. She tells me that she can't do anything about it if the machine indicates 19 francs when it selects what I asked for and that it can't give me the price of 18 francs, despite the indication on the card. I then ask him to speak to the manager. This one tells me that it is an error in the price indicated on the card. I kindly explain to him that the error does not come from me and that it is not up to the customer to take responsibility for the establishment's error. The manager replied insolently that there was only 1 franc difference, making me understand that I should not be close to that. So I told him that for the establishment too there was only 1 franc difference and that he could accept his mistake. Nothing happened, the manager categorically refused to charge me the price which was indicated on the card. So I ended up leaving this establishment that was contemptuous of its customers who neither took responsibility for their mistake nor respected the law in this case!

Awesome experience paddle boarding on lake Geneva. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Beautiful location to have a glass by the lake with a breathtaking view without spending a fortune.

Tropical Corner is one of my favorite places in Geneva

A nice surprise in Geneva. Atypical and really nice place

Probably the best place in town to rent windsurf or stand up paddle (or both!) Great atmosphere and super friendly staff.

Good atmosphere and fairly isolated area which allows for a certain tranquility. The quality is very good and the portions are well measured, the price remains high but this is not surprising since it is the same for all the bars and restaurants on the banks of the lake.

Just a question... 30 Chf a large beer and two cokes It's not a bit of a laugh for a place that wants to be friendly 👎👎👎 Reserved for the wealthy, nothing more, nothing less

One of the best places to go in geneva in summer. Great hamburgers and ambient!

Going to Tropical Corner for SUP and Windsurfing, easy convenient.

Welcoming, friendly, inexpensive and very professional. The best windsurfing and paddle instructors.

Nice place for summer activities.

A nice bar, next to the water. Good place for water sports too

Superb location on the edge of Geneva, allows you to enjoy the lake and the beach atmosphere

A nice spot in summer where you can rent paddles (20.-/1 h), wind surf and extra summer activities. You can change yourself there, lockers are available with showers. They also have a bar and a terrace front of the lake

Perfect to drink with friends afterwork! Amazing location, good vibes, weiter a bit rude!
