Beach volleyball in Munich: every court, indoor hall, and how to find partners

Munich rivals Berlin for the title of Germany's beach volleyball capital – around 49 courts across 28 locations make the case. Here are the best spots, where to play in winter, and how to actually get a team together.

Beach volleyball in winter? No problem

The outdoor season runs roughly from April to September. If you don't want to pause, keep playing indoors: Beach38° has year-round indoor beach courts – real sand, just with a roof. Ideal for staying in rhythm through winter.

What does a court cost?

Beach courts are booked per hour and per court – split across a team, it stays fair. Some public courts (e.g. in a university context) are free, while the large arenas and indoor halls charge court rental. You'll find live prices and open slots on each venue's booking page.

Tip: Beach volleyball lives on critical mass. Two people isn't much fun – four, or rotating groups, and it runs itself.

The real problem: enough people at your level

Court booked, but there are only two of you? That's exactly the hurdle with team and niche sports. The "Beachvolleyball München" Facebook group and ZHS courses help, but it's luck and negotiation. Lyo is built for this gap: it matches you by sport, level and location with people in Munich – and you can join open sessions with a single tap.
