Fun under the sun

Hydro Power: Wakeboarding

Imagine the breeze blowing through your hair as you are dragged along a lake at speeds of up to 30 km/h on a surfboard while you try to weave left and right and somersault in various directions.

If this sounds like your cup of tea - and those who have tried it assure us it is highly addictive - then wakeboarding is the new summer sport for you, and it is only a short drive from the city.
