(The Jet D'eau only operates on non-windy days between March and September).

The Jet D'eau is an amazing icon situated in Lac Lemon (or Lake Geneva as we Americans call it). I had the pleasure of seeing it and actually walking right up to it and feeling the spray douce my face as I leaned my head back and looked up as high as I could see. The sound lets you know just how powerful the force of it is! At night, they light it up, and it is truly spectacular. It was definitely worth the 11 hour flight from California to see.
