The 15 Best Secret Beaches in Europe

"Where the Dordogne and Vézère rivers meet, this inland riverside stretch near a medieval village offers pebbly shores and broad grassy banks shaded by ancient trees, providing a cool refuge from summer heat. Visitors can wade into slow-flowing water beneath limestone cliffs rich in prehistoric history — the surrounding region is famous for cave paintings and early human habitation — making the spot both restorative and culturally resonant." - Julia Buckley Julia Buckley Julia Buckley is a journalist who’s been writing about Italy for more than 15 years.

This charming spot is perfect for picnics and a quick dip in the river. The parking area is conveniently located just a three-minute walk away. You'll find plenty of picnic tables and trees providing ample shade. Across the street behind the beach, there's a restaurant with a lovely terrace and an ice cream shop. After relaxing at the beach, take a stroll through the beautiful little town of Limeuil. For those seeking adventure, canoeing down the river is a fun activity. One friendly tip: if you see a cute and friendly border collie wandering around without its owners, don't panic (as I did :D). It belongs to the restaurant owners!

Beautiful village to visit. Beach is calm. Canoeing from it, swim or get in a rubber ring and float down .

Not sure about the beach, but this picturesque little village is worth the visit. Old medieval houses and streets peppered with nice restaurants. An absolute must visit if you are in the area.

Wonderfull stop for swimming and enjoying the current (that is quite strong). We bought some floating tires at the camping store on the other side of the river. Enough shade to spend a whole day swimming and lounging.

Beautiful spot overlooking Limeuil. It's a little beach with nice bits of river to paddle in. The river is quite fast moving as it's at a confluence, but there's some shallow areas for kids to paddle safely.

Lovely clean pebbled beach - ice creams and restaurant nearby. Great for canoeing and swimming 😎

Beautiful view, looking across to the village with the added bonus of being able to take a swim to cool down in the midday heat.

Not a nice beach to go to. Not quite clean and a bad smell around the water. The town is very nice with a few places to eat.
