April – October
Campione del Garda is not only a paradise for kitesurfing and wingfoil: it is also one of the most beloved places for sailing on Lake Garda, thanks to ideal wind conditions, its unique atmosphere and the presence of international schools.
The wind conditions on Lake Garda are among the best in Europe: the Pelèr (north wind) and the Ora (south wind) alternate regularly, creating constant winds that favour safe and fun sailing, both for beginners and for those who want to perfect their technique.
Campione is the ideal base for sailing because the wind is regular and predictable, the lake is wide and open, perfect for manoeuvres, and the schools and sailing centres offer full support.
In Campione del Garda you will find Univela Sailing, an excellence sailing school located directly on the lakeside. Here you can participate in courses for all levels, from beginners to experts, take private lessons tailored with certified instructors, and get in touch with a community of sailing and water sports enthusiasts.
Univela offers well-structured teaching programmes, with a modern fleet of dinghies and catamarans, designed to allow step-by-step and safe learning.
The school organises basic and advanced courses with the possibility of personalised lessons, international residential camps where you sail, experience the lake and deepen your technique, sailing boat excursions with skipper to explore the lake from a unique perspective, and participation in regattas and high-level sports events that attract sailors from all over Europe every year.
Programmes like the Garda Optimist Academy open the doors to young sailors, offering dedicated clinics and training to grow in sailing from a young age.
In Campione del Garda, sailing combines with a complete lake experience: you can combine navigation with activities such as SUP, kayak, trekking or simply relax on the shore after a day of wind and water. Whether you are a curious beginner or an experienced sailor, Campione del Garda and Univela offer you a stimulating, safe and opportunity-rich environment to experience sailing in every way.
The Ora thermal wind usually arrives between 11:00 and 14:00. Book boat trips in the morning for the Peler or in the afternoon for the Ora. For young sailors, enquire about the Garda Optimist Academy programmes.
