Windsurfing
Thousands of colorful and darting windsurfs ply the waters of Lake Garda
The winds regularly blowing from the northern shorelines of Lake Garda make this area particularly suitable for windsurfing.
Windsurfing is a sport that tests your strength and gives you the chance to identify your limits, find a way to face any situation, improve your self-confidence and enjoy your life.
The winds that blow from the northern shorelines of Lake Garda are usually gentle to moderate in the morning, while the speed increases in the afternoon with the arrival of the legendary “Ora”, a thermal and regularly blowing wind that reaches an average intensity of 4/6 Beaufort (7-15 metres per second), making Garda a real “paradise for surfers”.
The best destination for those who love this sport or want to learn its secrets is the northern shore of the lake: along the shoreline there are some qualified centres that organise national and international events and offer courses for both adults and children, all levels, from beginners to pros.
There are also some windsurfing courses available to safely learn the basic techniques, and places where to rent the equipment required to practice this fun sport.
