About this place Gaasperplas

The park around the Gaasperplas lake in Amsterdam-Zuidoost hosts the city's most low-key cruising area: paths to the left of the main entrance and a small beach at the end of the dead-end road, busiest from late afternoon into the night in summer. Unlike De Oeverlanden this one has no official signage or formal tolerance — it is simply long-standing and known. The area is big, green and genuinely pretty; plenty of visitors come just to swim. Metro 53 to Gaasperplas station puts you at the park gate. Usual rules: discretion, no litter, and report trouble to the police LGBTQ+ unit (0900-8844).

A nice piece of nature by Amsterdam standards. Beautiful to walk around the lake and a nice little naturist beach.
