Birthday on the water.
If your birthday falls in the hot season (which here on Lake Garda starts from the end of March – early April and lasts until the end of October – mid-November), surfing the waves is the coolest and most fun solution!
Garda Tours: a nice private boat party with music and aperitif. A large fleet of your choice and lots of fun both as a couple and with relatives and friends. The peninsula of Sirmione with its spectacular Jamaica Beach they will be the setting for your party.
Nautica Elettrica San Felice: rental of electric boats from the Port of San Felice del Benaco (BS); easy to use (no boat license required), safe, ecological and silent. Suitable for small groups for a romantic aperitif or an easy dinner in peace. You can enjoy it at sunset looking at the beautiful Isola del Garda or Isola di San Biagio.
Three splendid historic double-masted sailing ships circulate on Lake Garda: Siora Veronica in Malcesine (VR), Siora Bianca in Garda (VR) and San Nicolò in Bardolino (VR).
