Roma On the water

Stand up paddle rental on Lake Bracciano at Polline

Rome

Polline is a shore inside the regional park, on the quiet side of the lake, and the base there has its own stretch of it. You take a board off the beach and the water in front of you is mostly empty.

How the day goes

  1. Board and paddle straight off their own beach.
  2. Out over deep water with the wooded crater rim right around you.
  3. Back in when you want; the sailing school runs off the same shore.

You go out alone over deep water, so this suits confident swimmers; the guided paddling outings elsewhere on the lake come with someone alongside.
