Wassersportcenter Berlin is a watersports facility located at the Wannsee in Berlin that offers rentals, introductory courses, and sailing experiences for visitors of varying skill levels. The center operates a schedule of public courses and equipment rentals, including a 90-minute Windsurf Schnupperkurs held every second Friday at 5 PM, with all necessary gear provided. Boats available include RS Toura, RS Zest, RS Kat 16, Nacra 570, and Laser Standard, plus kayaks and SUP boards for flexible self-guided outings. Some high-performance boats such as the RS Kat 16 and Nacra 570 are offered to sailors with a valid sailing license. Rental options note specific durations where provided, for example kayak and Nacra rentals available for two hours or more. SUP rentals and introductory SUP courses are available for individuals and groups, and a dedicated SUP offering for school classes ("SUP für Schulklassen") operates from the Strandbad Wannsee area near S-Bahnhof Nikolassee. The center lists experiences for single and multi-person boats, including 1er Kayak, 2er Kayak, and 4er Kanu. Equipment provision varies by trip; the Windsurf Schnupperkurs explicitly supplies gear while participants are asked to bring swimwear. A telephone appointment option ("Telefon Termin") is available for bookings or questions. Safety measures, basic instruction, and easy-to-handle boats are emphasized in course descriptions. Visitors planning activities are advised to check specific trip pages for up-to-date schedules, license requirements, and detailed rental conditions.
Booking options include walk-ups, online reservations, and phone appointments to accommodate individual and group planning needs. Seasonal availability depends on weather conditions.
