To refresh you from our hot days, a swimming in our lakes is just the thing!
Numerous beaches or small coves on the shores of our lakes await you.
For your security, you will find supervised swimming areas on the shore from July, 1st to August, 31st.
- Aiguines - Beach of Galetas,
- Les Salles-sur-Verdon - Beach “Margaridon”,
- Bauduen - Beach of the village.
Jumping into the water from bridges and rocks is forbidden by interdepartmental or municipal order.
For your security, never cross the buoy lines around the dams. EDF reminder: This lake is an artificial lake: the sloping and unstable banks, the depth of the water and the variations in the level of the reservoirs make access to the lake dangerous.
Rafting, canyoning, hydrospeed, white water swimming, water trekking, cano-raft... Many white water activities are possible in the Verdon.
White water activities depend on the release of water from the dams located upstream from Castellane.
They usually take place on Tuesdays and Fridays in July and August, subject to change by EDF.
For the months of March to June, as well as September and October, EDF informs the guides as they become available - so it's best to contact them directly to organize your activity.
In calm waters: Pedalos, electric boats, fun boats, catamarans, paddleboats, windsurfers, dinghies, canoes and kayaks: water sports centres and rental companies await you in Artignosc-sur-Verdon, Bauduen, Les Salles-sur-Verdon and Aiguines.
Calm water activities take place in the form of round trips from the Sainte-Croix and Artignosc-sur-Verdon lakes.
Please note: in the event of bad weather or strong winds, water sports activities may close - please contact the rental companies for further information.
