Thanks to the hard work of urban activists Valyo, after consultation with several local NGOs, Óbuda Council has granted permission for a permanent public beach at Római-part.
It was possible to swim freely here until 1973, but then the authorities put a stop to it. Now, with greatly improved water quality – something being continuously monitored – the public beach can reopen.
There will be no admission to pay. A lifeguard service will be provided and buoys will delineate the designated area where visitors can swim. There will be toilets, a nappy change, showers and sun loungers.
It will be possible to bathe at the Római-parti Plázs
until dark. From 10pm to 8am, a night guard will patrol the area, which can be
found by the Hattyú boathouse at Kossuth
Lajos üdülőpart 15-17.
The nearest transport stop is Szent János utca on the
34 bus route, three stops from Rómaifürdő HÉV station a 15-minute walk away.
