WATER & FUN


From the beginning of 2009. we decided to expand our services. Adherence to extreme amusements we started to rent some watersports equipment. Every tourist likes having fun in the water on a hot summer day :)

At the moment we rent out kneeboard and towable tubes.

Kneeboard is similar to wakeboard. The main difference is that on the wakeboard you stand up, kneeboard riders sit on their heels on the board, and secure themselves to the deck with an adjustable strap over their thighs.

Kneeboarding is fun, because you can steer the board behind the boat at the lenght of the tow-rope. For kneeboarding the water should be calm with none or minimal waves. You can ride the kneeboard with a ~5meters/ps wind and some waves but this requires more skills and tires the rider out quicker.

Tube riding or tubing is even more easier. Tube is an inflatable towable watersports accessory with a nylon/neoprene skin and handles to grab on to.

But you can get an adrenaline shot also with calm water, 'cause the boat rider can take the tube into a slide which makes it pretty hard to stay on it :)

BOARD AND TUBES

We use Jobe Sports Europe products. Currently we have two different tubes Stealth II, Thunder I and Relic II kneeboard.

Before the ride we give everybody lifejackets, teach you safety and hand out some useful tips.

We take you on the water from harbor or straight from the Limo beach. One hour of riding tubes or kneeboard costs only 20.- €.
It is common to divide the hour between 4-6 persons who will be taken onto the water one by one.
