San Biagio Island
The IslandThe Island San Biagio, called "Rabbit Island" by the locals, is more or less an extension of the half island "Belvedere Point", on which the Camping grounds of San Biagio are situated. The Island is reachable by wading through knee deep water, and if the water levels are really low - on dry land! Its magnificent location guarantees a very rare and special view over the Garda Lake, as well as idyllic cool breezes on very hot days.
In the 50’s the Island was used to test weapons by nearby armour manufacturer "Beretta", however today the Island of San Biagio is a favourite spot for young and old alike. The visitor can reach the island by walking along the beach or by ferry from "Porto Torchio". Since Spring of 2007 a fee is charged for admission to the island, for the guests of Camping San Biagio entry to the island is free.
Catering and EventsDuring the summer months the restaurant/snack bar on the island is open and run efficiently by Mauro, the "Captain" in charge of the Restaurant on the San Biagio Camping Site. At regular intervals there are also concerts on the weekends - ranging from Rock, Pop and Classic. The sanitary facilities have been updated and as well the island provides b-b-q places, swimming areas, and for a nominal fee, deck chairs and beach umbrella’s.
