The Colombare area of Sirmione is one of the most delightful spots on the southern shore of Lake Garda, thanks to its ideal blend of peace, amenities, and proximity to the historic center. Just a short walk from B&B Topaze is Brema Beach, one of the largest and best-equipped beaches on the peninsula, featuring a vast green area, a gently sloping seabed, and clear waters. It is perfect for families, couples, and water sports enthusiasts, with options to rent pedal boats, sun loungers, and umbrellas, as well as a dock providing direct access to the lake and boat launching facilities.
The lakeside promenade easily connects Colombare to the old town of Sirmione, which can also be reached by a convenient shuttle bus or in about twenty minutes on foot. Along the way, visitors can enjoy parks, outdoor cafes, and picturesque views of the lake. The historic center is a gem nestled within the Scaliger walls, full of charm with its cobbled streets, artisan shops, gelaterias, and breathtaking vistas. Not to be missed are the Grotte di Catullo, an ancient Roman villa overlooking the water, and the Scaliger Castle, one of the best-preserved castles in Italy.
During the summer season, Colombare comes to life with evening markets, musical events, and roaming performances that enliven the local squares. In just a few minutes by car, you can also reach the famous Terme di Sirmione, perfect for those looking to combine their stay with wellness and relaxation.
The strategic location of the neighborhood also allows for easy access to the main amusement parks around Lake Garda, such as Gardaland, Caneva, Le Ninfee, Parco Natura Viva, and Parco Giardino Sigurtà, making Colombare an ideal base for a well-rounded vacation filled with lake activities, culture, nature, and fun.
