Boating holidays in Germany

Germany is a country of lakes and home to one of most famous in the world, Lake Constance. Here, fishing, boating and swimming are the basis of a whole culture and way of life, with thousands of lakes for families to explore on a self-drive boat. For many years now, all the equipment and infrastructure has been in place, from resorts to simple pontoons, to meet the needs of boat crews without spoiling the character of these wild areas or reducing the incredible purity of the water. It’s an experience that gives you an all-round view of the country, including its history and art. If you rent a boat here, you’ll have the chance to discover famous towns such as Potsdam, with its famous Sanssouci Palace, Schwerin or Berlin, where traces of the past meet futuristic architecture. And Germany knows how to treat its guests: whether you’re crazy about the sausages in the local bar or prefer dried fish to smoke yourself, you’ll enjoy the food. Everywhere you go, there are enormous panoramas and wonderful sunsets. Relaxing on your Pénichette^®, which couldn’t be easier to handle and requires no licence to drive, you could spend your days rocked by the gentle water and humming along to classic German pop tunes: you could easily forget what year it is.
