Lido di Lenno is a lakefront beach in the hamlet of Lenno, in Tremezzina, at Via Comoedia 1 on the lakeside promenade, near the ferry pier. It sits in a highly recognisable spot in the Golfo di Venere, with views over the western branch of Lake Como.
Facilities
The municipality describes the lido as a sandy beach with sun loungers and umbrellas available for a fee under the beach management, along with a shower service and a restaurant. Right after the facility, a wider stretch of coast offers a pebble beach with free access and nearby parking: the distinction between the managed lido, the public beach and these nearby stretches of shore is useful for understanding which services are actually available in each area. In 2024, while awaiting the award of a new management contract, the municipality announced the beach’s temporary opening as a free-access area, with toilets available — a precedent showing that access arrangements and services can change from one season to the next.
Nearby
Lenno is one of the historic centres of Tremezzina, with a pleasant lakeside promenade for a walk. From the lido you can continue towards the Lavedo promontory and, following the permitted paths, towards Villa del Balbianello. The area also includes a stretch of the Greenway del Lago di Como, which links Colonno, Sala Comacina, Ossuccio and Lenno through villages, villas, churches and lake views. A short distance away, near Ossuccio, lies the locality of Ospedaletto, with a large lawn facing the water and the historic complex of the former hospitalis.
