Sailing holidays on Lake Garda - dinghies, windsurf, catamaran, kayak, bike and SUP and always something for all the family
Lake Garda is not only a sailing and windsurfing paradise, it's a perfect holiday destination for families and lovers of all adventure sports. It's no wonder that all of the top sailing teams train and race here or that they come as families to enjoy the wonderful weather, mountain scenery and historic towns of Lake Garda.
Don't just think of it as just a coach trip destination (all though that's fine as well) think of the culture, exploring and adventure, the good food, stunning scenery and good value, where everyone can do something, including nothing.
Wonderful sailing, morning and afternoon and the opportunity to bike, canyon, hill-walk, paraglide, golf, explore, sunbathe, donkey-trek
Situated in the foothills of the Dolomites and blessed with a temperate climate, Lake Garda with its thermal winds and proximity to the mountains and cities of the Italian Pianura
make it a perfect place for a holiday for the passionate sailor or windsurfer as well as mountain bikers climbers and lovers of all outdoor sports. Malcesine should be your first choice for a Lake Garda activity holiday.
The cities of Verona and Venice are only a maximum of a couple of hours away which mean that culture and shopping are very much on the agenda for a family who want an all round holiday.
We welcome families and are ideally situated with child friendly restaurants and excellent food as well as a temperate climate without the extremes of temperature suffered by many other Mediterranean destinations in high summer. Our centre is well equipped for childrens' windsurfing and sailing and we can arrange baby-sitting for those who wish to visit the Opera or have a romantic night out in one of the excellent restaurants in Malcesine or Riva del Garda.
