Having lunch at Esterhagzy

This is the beach located a few kilometers away from the main strand and marina. I think we may have been the only non-Hungarians there! Esterhagzy is a long stretch of grass, with lots of trees, and a very short sandy area at the water's edge. You can swim in the water here, and there are docks a little bit away from shore where you can sunbathe. There are a lot of food stalls here, serving many different types of fast food. There is a DJ playing Top 40 english songs and popular Hungarian music as well.

The entrance fee is 350 Ft for the whole day. The price is reduced after 1.

We are at the top!

It is located to the north of Balatonfured. We went trough the forest up and up. But we were compensated for the amazing view to Balatofured, Balaton Lake and surrounding forests. We were there before the rain and the sky was from light to dark colours!
We took a map and asked at the tourist office how to go there. There is no public transport to go there.

L��czy Cave

Found in 1894 the Lóczy Cave (Lóczy-Barlang) was opened for the public in 1934. Build with limestone layers in horizontal formation, created by warm waters gushing up from the deep. Caverns are on a few levels, so the way leads on stairs. Totally length about 120 m.

 I found Balatonfured much more relaxed than Siofok. Friends told me that it's always like this except for the wine festival in August.
