### Singles within easy reach

Set your maximum distance, from the Old Town out to the Geneva countryside. Your selection only shows people you can actually meet.

### Only when it's mutual

### Discretion and verified identity

Your profile is visible only to logged-in members, never to search engines. A badge shows which members have verified their identity.

First date ideas

## Where to meet in Geneva

### Bains des Pâquis

On the Quai du Mont-Blanc, a stone's throw from the Jet d'Eau. People meet here summer and winter alike, around the café, facing the lake.

### The Old Town and Saint-Pierre

A stroll through the streets of the Old Town, with the cathedral rising above them. From its towers, the rooftops, the lake and the Jet d'Eau all fit into a single view.

### Carouge

Just a short way from the centre, its Sardinian-inspired architecture, artisans' lanes and shady terraces lend themselves to a relaxed drink.

### Parc La Grange

Along the Quai Gustave-Ador, Geneva's largest park, free to enter, with its rose garden of around 200 varieties, for an unhurried walk.

Is Velvet available in Geneva?

Yes. Velvet is for singles across French-speaking Switzerland, including Geneva and its canton. You decide how far away your suggested profiles can be, for example to stay between Geneva and Nyon.

How do I find a serious relationship in Geneva?

Start by saying what you are looking for, then set out your criteria: age, distance, lifestyle, interests. Every day, Velvet introduces you to a few profiles who share that goal, each with your affinity as a percentage. You only exchange messages when the interest is mutual, with no unsolicited messages.

Can I stay discreet?

Yes. Only logged-in members can see your profile, and it never appears in search engines. You can hide it whenever you like, and nobody can message you without your consent.
