Boating
Like sailing, boating is all about the feel of freedom and space in open seas or beautiful lakes. Depending on the type of boat, the location and the duration of the trip there are a few boating activities: recreational, power boating, yachting or cruising. For the pedaling boats, please refer to our Canoeing/Kayaking section.
Boating can be competitive, that is if you choose to go for the annual regatta with your yacht. But it is mostly a recreational activity suitable for people of all ages, families and friends. Especially short weekend cruises or longer sails are a perfect stress relief activity.
When you plan a trip and go on board, please keep in mind the safety precaution measures and the legal norms you have to observe. To get acquainted with both it is good to sign in for a course and become a member of a boating community. There you will meet people with interests close to yours and you will have good access to quality materials and advice on weather forecasts, first aid tips, navigation gear, boating maps and equipment and everything else that will help you enjoy your sail.
