The weather can change quickly at the lake. Even when there appears to be no wind, squalls and heavy rain can occur within a few minutes. For this reason, more than 60 storm warning lights are installed around Lake Constance close to the shore so that the signals can be seen from anywhere on or near the water. Strong winds are indicated by 40 orange flashes per second. If the lights flash faster, at 90 flashes per minute, then there is a storm and danger to life and limb. For your own safety, please move to the shore immediately in strong winds. We also recommend securing awnings, loose objects and furniture on the pitch and retracting awnings as a precaution. If there is a risk of thunderstorms, please go to the recreation room immediately! Despite intensive tree care, dangers from broken branches on the pitch cannot be ruled out.

Numerous rare species of plants, birds, mussels and fish thrive on Lake Constance, including in our bay! We ask you

• refrain from feeding the wild animals
• do not uproot plants and move carefully on the beach
• clean your own SUPs and boats of any kind thoroughly before and after launching them.

It goes without saying that we endeavour to ensure the greatest possible cleanliness. This applies in particular to the beach, which we clean for you every day during the bathing season. At the same time, harmony with nature is our top priority. We therefore ask for your understanding that wood is a natural flotsam on Lake Constance, which occurs in large quantities and therefore cannot always be completely removed.
