Small beach that is good for waders, rare shorebirds, and waterfowl, especially during spring and autumn migration, but also in winter.
The Excenevex beach (1) is one of the few larger sandy beaches of the Lake Geneva and therefore of special interest for waders, shorebirds, and waterfowl, especially from the end of August through to mid-May.
The most common wader is Correlimos Común, but Andarríos Bastardo, Archibebe Oscuro, Chorlitejo Chico, Chorlitejo Grande, Andarríos Chico, Archibebe Claro, Archibebe Común, Correlimos Menudo, and also rarer waders like Correlimos Gordo, Chorlito Gris, Correlimos Tridáctilo, Chorlitejo patinegro, Aguja Colinegra, and especially Vuelvepiedras Común are sometimes observed. The best chances for most waders are in April and May, whereas the Correlimos Común is most abundant in September-October, and the Vuelvepiedras Común is most likely to be observed during winter. The beach is freely accessible, and as some of the waders are not shy - especially the first-years in autumn - and approach patient observers on their own, excellent observations can be made.
The beach also offers a good opportunity to search a big part of the lake with a scope. The Charrán Común is present from late April to September. Gaviota Cabecinegra, Martín Pescador Común, and Tarro Blanco, which are present year-round, can be seen. In April and May, chances are best for observing Gaviota sombría and, with luck, Charrán Patinegro and Pagaza Piquirroja. From late summer to autumn, rare guests like Falaropo Picogrueso, Págalo Parásito, Págalo Rabero, and Págalo Pomarino can be seen with a scope and lots of luck.
From autumn to winter, interesting waterfowl stays in the bay, like Ánade rabudo norteño, Silbón Europeo, Porrón Osculado, Cuchara Común, and - again, with luck - Porrón Bastardo, Serreta Mediana, Negrón común, Negrón especulado, Colimbo Ártico, Colimbo Chico, Colimbo Grande, and Somormujo Cuellirrojo. Especially the divers are present through to April.
You might also come across a Pigargo Europeo, but most likely it will have been raised in captivity: The station of the reintroduction programme „Les Aigles du Leman“ is situated close by.
Near the beach, in Sciez, a small wetland can be visited (2). It is most interesting during spring migration. Rascón Europeo, Ruiseñor Común, Alcaudón Dorsirrojo, Oropéndola Europea, Tórtola Europea, and Picamaderos Negro are breeding here, Agachadiza común, Bisbita Pratense, and Aguilucho pálido are sometimes present in winter.
Rarities found at the Excenevex beach include Gaviota Tridáctila, Gaviota Picofina, Papamoscas Acollarado, Pagaza Piconegra, Gavión Atlántico, one Págalo Grande in 1999 and even one Alcatraz Atlántico in 2003.
Excenevex beach is located on the south bank of Lake Geneva. There is a public parking close by the beach (click on the P in the map). Public transport is unfortunately scarce. There is a hourly bus connecting Yvoire and Thonon that stops close by; leave at La Pinède.
The paths are easily accessible, and the beach is usually empty in the winter, spring and late autumn, except for a few dogwalkers.
If possible, choose a day that is not too windy, as it can be difficult to search the waters of the lake when there are many waves.
