Zurich has several beaches along Lake Zurich and the Limmat river. Most popular with gays is the lido ›Badi Tiefenbrunnen‹, idyllically situated at Lake Zurich.
Its gay area in front of the changing cubicle next to the restaurant is well-known for showing and watching the newest swimwear fashion and the results of the hard work at the gyms in the winter season.
If you like your bum sun-tanned, you can go to the Werdinsel, a small island on the Limmat river. After the guarded beach you will find the nude beach which is also a gay area. (No cruising, though – the bushes are regularly checked by the police.)
