Relax on the Beaches

There are numerous beaches to choose from when vacationing in Desenzano, each offering unique features and varying amenities.

The most popular and frequented is Desenzanino Beach, located near the historic Hotel Villa Rosa and just steps from the old town.

This free equipped beach welcomes tourists seeking different bathing experiences. Young people will also find a lively scene, especially in the evenings.

Feltrinelli Beach is another interesting spot, offering pedal boat and canoe rentals for peaceful lake excursions—perfect for those seeking solitude.

However, the beach lacks restroom facilities, despite having loungers and umbrellas.

Canneti Beach is a more alternative option, welcoming nudists and the LGBTQ+ community in a playful and free atmosphere where everyone can express themselves without hesitation.

Visit the Castle

No matter the season, a visit to the famous Desenzano Castle is a must.

Towering over the village, it adds charm and character, serving as a fortified terrace with panoramic views of the lake.

Built in medieval stone, it holds significant historical and cultural value and attracts tourists from around the world each year.

Stroll Through the Historic Center

The best time to visit the town is after sunset when the heat fades, and soft lighting makes this charming village even more magical.

Designed by Giulio Tedeschini in the 1500s, the historic center features important monuments like the Palazzo del Provveditore and the Monument to General Achille Papa.

Continuing along the path, you reach the Porto Vecchio, the city's heart and a beautiful place for a leisurely walk.

Here, you can admire Palazzo Todeschini, once a municipal building where bankrupt individuals were condemned.

Enjoy the Nightlife

Along the lakeside, you'll find bars, pubs, and restaurants of all kinds, perfect for tasting local delicacies and dancing to music. Later, you can head to the large nightclubs in the Brescia area for more evening fun.

Young people are guaranteed endless entertainment, returning to their accommodations at sunrise, tired but happy.
