San Felice del Benaco is a quaint village that, despite offering modern services and excellent restaurants, still maintains the charm of history. With about 3000 inhabitants, it overlooks the western shore of Lake Garda, with the luck of being a lakeside village immersed in the greenery of olive groves and vineyards of the beautiful hinterland of Valtènesi.
In the center of the village, in addition to the weekly market, you can find all kinds of services: restaurants, bars, ice cream shops, bakeries, banks, supermarkets, etc. From the cozy and lively village, enchanting paths immersed in nature branch out for walking or cycling, leading to the characteristic ports and beaches. In just 15 minutes on foot, you can reach the Port of San Felice and with a few more minutes to that of Portese (both have beautiful beaches). Passing through the cycle and pedestrian path, you can also reach the much-loved Baia del Vento, which has an equipped beach and a bar/restaurant.
Also worth discovering are the hamlets of Cisano (a timeless place) and Portese, another small village with a beautiful port where ferries dock for navigation on Lake Garda. The city of Salò, finally, is only 6 km from San Felice.
To visit the rest of the coast and neighboring towns (Gardone Riviera, Toscolano Maderno, Limone, Manerba, Desenzano, Sirmione, Peschiera, etc.), it is advisable to use your own means of transportation, e-bikes (for the more sporty), or ferries, which are very convenient for visiting the eastern coast as well.
