You are pulled across the shimmering blue waters of Thurgau on your wakeboard by boat or lift and glide through the waves, far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Experienced and courageous wakeboarders even dare to jump over the jump. You can wakeboard in Thurgau at four different locations on Untersee and in Hinterthurgau. It is possible to hire the equipment, consisting of board, vest and helmet, on site.
At various stand-up paddle rental stations along Lake Constance, newcomers as well as those with short notice can discover and experience this trendy sport. Equipped with a board and paddle, you can go shore hopping or explore the peaceful bay on Lake Constance from where you started. Our tip for early risers: enjoy the sunrise over the lake on your board and listen to the lapping of the water.
The Lake Constance Canoe Trail stretches 44 kilometers from Kreuzlingen to Schaffhausen - past castles, monasteries and pristine shoreline nature. On the two-day tour, bathing spots, harbor restaurants and idyllic fishing villages invite you to linger. Canoes can be hired along the entire route.
Windsurfing and kitesurfing on Lake Constance? Yes! You don't have to chug all the way to the Mediterranean to try out these water sports. The Boarderhouse in Berlingen is in a prime location on Untersee and offers taster courses as well as kite and board hire. And by the way: you can also try out the lesser-known hydrofoil surfing at the Boarderhouse.
Unlike wakeboarding, wakesurfing involves trying to ride the artificial wave generated by the boat without a rope. As simple as it sounds, this water sport requires a lot of muscle power. But once you catch the wave, the feeling of happiness is unbeatable.
Fancy a leisurely family outing? A pedalo trip on Lake Constance in summer weather is always a good idea. For either one or two hours, you and up to four people can explore the Lake Constance region from the water on a pedalo. And if you need a refreshment in between, take a dip in the cool water. Pedalos can be hired from Fürst Boote in Romanshorn or from Schifffahrt Neuenschwander AG in Kreuzlingen.
You never forget the first breath under water. The feeling of weightlessness, peace and freedom, the flora and fauna underwater. This is experiencing nature where others cannot go. Diving in Lake Constance opens up a whole new world. Mydive offers guided dives, rental equipment and diving training in Lake Constance.
