Sailing and Kitesurfing in October !

Even there is no summer temperature anymore the October is still perfect for sailing lessons with the catamaran and for kitesurf lessons. There is always wind so lake garda is a nice spot for kitesurfing and other water activities. Especially in October we have most of the time strong north wind. So the people enjoy the kitesurfing and the sailing. We provide you with wetsuits, life jackets and shoes ( for gloves it´s not yet cold enough ;) ) so you feel still comfortable if it´s getting colder while having long sessions in the water. We bring you with the power boat directly to the kitesurf spot. You follow the wind and there is a lot of space around you. You learn immediately how to react in deep water and advanced riders are lucky to have the wind shuttle. You can choose between SUP, Catamaran, Dinghy, Kayak or Kitesurfing – there is something for everyone.

Even there´s only time for a long weekend or a few days, next to our surf and sailing school Limone Watersports is the nice Hotel Villa Romantica which have great offers for this month. We have a lot of different courses you can choose. Just contact us if you want a tailored offer.

We are looking forward to welcoming you !
