Water castle

There is a large inflatable water castle in the shallow part of the lake. Swim there with your friends and climb on it. Will you climb to the highest point and then jump off, or will you climb from one side of the water castle to the other without falling into the water. Teenagers and adults also like to race to the top of the inflatable castle.

Stand - up - paddle

Have you always wanted to try this popular sport during the holidays? You can do so at recreational lake St. Bertrand in Quillan. Supping seems very easy but also has difficult aspects such as staying balanced and the actually paddling. You’ll be able to move forward by alternating between paddling on the left and the right side.

Beach football

Running through the sand chasing a ball is a lot more tiring than doing so on grass. However, the real football enthusiasts love to practice the sport whilst on holiday. Play a shorter match than you would usually do to spare yourself from the French summer sun. After a match, dive back the water and cool off.
