A natural monument located between the villages of Beňatina and Inovce, near the Ukrainian border. Originally a travertine quarry that was flooded with water, it is compared to Croatia's Plitvice Lakes. In the lake we can find many fossils of small marine animals and a 5 m long formation, which apparently represents the fossilized imprint of a prehistoric whale (often nicknamed the "Benetian whale"). You can swim in it only at your own risk. There is also a buffet by the lake with the characteristic name "U Whales" and there is also a zipline.
