Do you have an offer for watersports with accommodation?

Yes we do, and if it is not online then we make you a personalised offer. We contact the hotels directly, you always get the best rate.

Remember on booking.com hotels do not list all their rooms. So they might look full but they are not. Always go for their own homepage. Also there they might look full but sometimes it is because of rules of minimum stay or there is not one room free for the whole period. When we call we get different (better) rules and sometimes we find you a room for the first nights and then a different room for the other nights. The earlier you book the better rooms you get but sometimes some last minute deals can be really good. Just give me a call or send me an email. I will be glad to help :)

Where do I rent mountainbikes?

We rent out basic mountain bikes for 5 euro per day, 25 euro week. Bikes with front suspension for 10 euro a day and 50 euro a week. These bikes are fine to bike around Limone and to ride up the mountains. But if you are used to a super fancy: full carbon, hydraulic seat adjuster and disk brakes you will be disappointed by our bikes. In that case you are better of renting in Riva del Garda. http://www.gardabikeshop.com/

Please ask us for suggestions for routes. We know the mountains around Limone really well and can make some great suggestions. At the Limone tourist info you can pick up the map and guide book for Limone hiking/ trekking.

How much time do I spend on the water?

In the morning we meet at the school at 6:30/6:45 depending on season. Students and lifters prepare themserves and instructors prepare the equipment needed for the lessons. As soon as you are ready you bring the equipment to the boats with all other students/lifters and in 10 minutes drive we reach the windy spot. Around 10:00 we pack down all kites out of the water and we drive back to the school where you open the kites to dry, wash and restore all the equipment used into the school till 11:00. In the afternoon we meet at 13:00, at 16:00 we take kites out of the water and you are free around 17:00, after storing all equipment inside the school again. The time that you spend on the water depends on the size of the group, wind conditions and your level. Normally in a group of 2-3 people you will spend 1,5 hrs practicing with the kite and/or the board. In no windy days or at the end of a short windy session you practice self rescue and/or wakeboarding to improve your abilities of standing on a board on the water and facilitate waterstart with the kite, These activities deal as a complete lesson.

I think there is no wind or the forecast is bad, what do I do?

If you have checked our wind page and the wind forecast is below 20% there is a change that there is no wind. If it is above 20% it means that we have wind at our kitespot in the North of Lake Garda, Capo Reamol (a 5 min drive with our boats). Feel free to send a message to the Wind Riders team to ask the latest interpretation of the forecast. It is not easy to know how the weather will be, but with our more than 10 years of experience on lake Garda we are pro's in forecasting.

Why do I need to pay the deposit?

Because we reserve a place for you in the boat, our places are limited and in high season we are often full. It is not nice if we say no to other kiters and then leave with an empty place because you do not show up.

I didn't manage to cancel within 24 h. What happens?

You lose 50% of the session you missed. It is up to Limone Watersports to make an exception. An exception could be that the mainroad was blocked and there was no other way to get to us and you did call us to notify us. If you just forget to wake up then the only one responsible for missing your session is you, and you lose 50%.

Can I kitesurf with my own equipment?

Yes you can. You can take a lift or a lift with supervision with your own equipment. For what lessons concerns, only pair and private lessons are allowed with your own equipment. If you want to join a group or trio you cannot use your own kite. Maybe you can use your own board. Please discuss this with your instructor. We offer private storage lockers for kiters with their own equipment.

How far is it to walk from Limone sul Garda downtown to Limone Watersports?

Do I need to wear a lifejacket on lake Garda?

Yes, every watersporter. No matter what level, which sport, how much experience or how much you like it or not. Everyone has to wear his/ her lifejacket. The lifejacket has to be 50 newton CE approved lifejacket. We provide one for our kite surfers, sailors and suppers who take lessons or rent equipment. If you come with your own equipment (kite, sup or boat) you can rent a lifejacket from us.
