Stay in one of our self-catering or b&b country houses as a really relaxing base and let our property owners organise your water skiing, using their local knowledge and contacts. If you are an experienced skier with your own equipment, you’ll just need a local boat with sufficient power, a skilled driver and a vigilant spotter. You could also take the opportunity to improve your starts or slalom technique or progress to mono skiing. If you want to learn the basics from a deep water start to balance and rope controls, then talk to our property owners about local instruction at all levels.

Water skiing on sea and lakes in France

France has many lakes and miles of coastal water suitable for water skiing. Southern locations have the advantage of warm water, especially as the summer progresses, and in most areas you’ll be surrounded by beautiful coastal scenery or lake shores. Few locations are far from a town, so you can water ski by day and enjoy local French food, wine and entertainment by night.
