Anyone can go to the beach. If you really want to enjoy the water, drive up and over the lake!
Tegeler See in the north, Wannsee in the south-west, Müggelsee and Dahme in the south-east: Berlin has around 60 square kilometers of water. And they want to be explored!
If you don’t have a sports boat license, you have to make do with motor boats with a maximum of 15 hp. This is completely sufficient for a short trip to the Berlin lakes. If you prefer to pedal yourself or lend a hand, you can rent a pedal boat or rowing boat. If you make yourself comfortable and maybe want to switch off for more than a day, you should set sail with the raft.
BZ shows you where you can rent boats for a relaxing day on the water without a license and how much it costs. Ahoy!
