Of course, the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Lake Balaton are the beach and bathing, but it worth to visit the nice look-out towers that are found around the lake. From the towers there is an enchanting view of the lake and its picturesque surroundings. You can see the turquoise color water surface and the mountain ranges surrounding the lake, like Badacsony, the heights of the Tihany Peninsula and the conical hills of the Balaton-Highlands.
