Forbes reported that the hotels of Lake Balaton use approximately 70-90% of their capacity this summer season. The number of active reservations has increased by 6% while the average number of reservations by 12%. For the bank holiday of August 20, there is no available room. According to statistics, Hungarians usually reserve for three days, mostly families and friends together.

Massive algae concentration in Lake Balaton makes swimming dangerous
Algae is necessary for every natural lake, but recently, Lake Balaton has been suffering from it rather than enjoying the advantages. The situation of the lake is devastating, as some experts reported, and the increased amount of algae can easily cause skin and other health problems for everyone who swims in Lake Balaton, which, during the summer season, is, without exaggerating, quite a popular activity.
