Surf'in Annecy with V-Boat. The V-Boat is the place that brings together all the means to enjoy yourself while sliding on the waters of the lake in complete safety. Rental of boats without a licence, pedal boats with or without a slide for a refreshing swim, water skiing and wakesurfing with Alex who is passionate about sliding, water skiing and wakeboarding in summer or snowboarding in winter (some of which are serious) or the latest and most popular paddle board, to stand on his board. And the less adventurous can rent cars, sorry pedal boats, to sail on the water. An essential address.
