Lido di Varenna, also called Olivedo Lido, sits on Via al Lido just north of Varenna's centre, a short walk from the Varenna ferry stop. It is a paid lido with sunbeds and umbrellas, changing rooms, showers, a bar, a bistrot and a restaurant, and it hosts jazz evenings and events in summer.

The shore is rocky, and travellers often mention a small pier for jumping into the lake. The lido does not publish its prices; visitor reports suggest a small entry fee plus around EUR 7 each for a sunbed or umbrella.

It is the most practical place to swim if you are staying in Varenna, where most of the waterfront is rock or harbour wall.
