SUNDAY JANUARY 1ST : THE JANUARY 1ST DIVE!

After 2 years of absence due to a health crisis, the traditional and mythical January 1st dive at the Lacs de l'Eau d'Heure returns this year. 

It is on the beach of the Espace Fun, a few hundred meters from our vacation domain that this original and unusual event takes place. At this time of the year, the water temperature at the Plate Taille lake is around 3-4°C. And yet! This does not cool down the numerous participants who jump into the water every year. 

In a bathing suit or warm on the shores of the lake, this experience is to be experienced or observed if you are visiting Eau d'Heure during the New Year's long weekend.
