The lakes surrounding Berlin make everything from wakeboarding to kitesailing possible (most watersports are referred to by their English names). Depending on the season, it can be possible to hire all the necessary equipment and a teacher for as little as €50. For information on individual sports, check out Germany’s windsurfing and watersports association (www.vdws.de), Germany’s wakeboard and waterski association (www.wasserski-wakeboard.de) or www.kitesurf.sportbootschulen.de.
