Boat Cruise to Sirmione and Lake Garda's Romantic Coast

Discover Sirmione and the Enchanting Romantic Coast by Water

Embark on a private boat cruise that unveils the timeless beauty and rich history of Sirmione, the "Pearl of Lake Garda." Departing from Desenzano del Garda, this scenic journey offers an intimate view of ancient Roman villas, healing thermal waters, and fairytale castles, all set against the stunning backdrop of Italy’s largest lake.

Your experience begins in Desenzano, a lively town with a charming harbor and vibrant atmosphere. From here, your skipper will guide you across the glistening waters of Lake Garda toward the breathtaking peninsula of Sirmione, a place beloved by poets, emperors, and travelers for centuries.

You'll cruise along Sirmione’s historic port, where colorful buildings and lively cafés line the waterfront. As you explore the peninsula, you'll get the chance to admire the elegant Aquaria Thermal Spa and the nearby Villa Callas, once home to legendary opera singer Maria Callas, with its stunning gardens and captivating lake views.

Glide along the Romantic Coast, a peaceful stretch of the peninsula kissed by turquoise waters and dotted with secluded villas. As you do, take a moment to savor the picturesque landscapes and charming villages. Then you'll be led to the northern tip of Sirmione to see the awe-inspiring Grottoes of Catullus, the ruins of a vast Roman villa with panoramic views. Your adventure continues past the bubbling Fonte Boiola, a natural thermal spring visible from the surface of the lake, known for its mineral-rich healing waters. 

Your final destination is the Scaligero Castle, one of Italy’s best-preserved medieval fortresses, with its dramatic towers rising directly from the lake. After circling this striking landmark, your boat will return to Desenzano.
