The motto <em>\u201cMake memories by the sea\u201d<\/em> captures the spirit of the event: four days in which the public takes centre stage, taking part in activities, challenges and moments of sharing.<\/p>\n<p>During the day, the beach and the sea become a dynamic arena dedicated to lessons, demonstrations, tournaments and competitions, accessible even to those trying these sports for the first time. From water sports such as surfing, SUP, e-foil, wingfoil, sailing and diving, to beach sports and activities focused on wellbeing, the programme offers a varied experience blending adrenaline and relaxation.<\/p>\n<p>Key events include competitions of national and international significance, such as the Water Festival Trophy \u2013 Lift E-Foil Battle Race, the FISSW SUP Race, the FITP Beach Tennis Open and the FIPAV B2 Beach Volleyball Tournament, alongside contests and special events.<\/p>\n<p>As the sun sets, the pace shifts without losing any of its intensity: the village and the main stage come alive with talks, live music and DJ sets, creating an atmosphere that blends sport and entertainment into a single seamless experience.<\/p>\n<p>With the participation of athletes and riders from all over the world, the <strong>Water Festival<\/strong> reaffirms its status as an event with an international reach, capable of showcasing the local area and creating a community that gathers every year to experience the sea in all its forms.<\/p>\n","galleria":false,"dataora_inizio":"30\/04\/2026 00:00","dataora_fine":"03\/05\/2026 00:00","url":"https:\/\/waterfestival.it\/","email_organizzatore":"hello@waterfestival.it","contatti_organizzatore":"","pagina_social":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/waterfestivalofficial","localizzazione":"<div class=\"leaflet-map\" data-height=\"400\" data-map=\"leaflet\" data-map-lng=\"13.2470668\" data-map-lat=\"38.199777\" data-map-zoom=\"15\" data-map-layers=\"[&quot;CartoDB.Voyager&quot;]\" data-map-markers=\"[{&quot;label&quot;:&quot;90040 Isola delle Femmine, Sicilia Italia&quot;,&quot;default_label&quot;:&quot;90040 Isola delle Femmine, Sicilia Italia&quot;,&quot;lat&quot;:38.198295000000002,&quot;lng&quot;:13.247344399999999,&quot;geocode&quot;:[{&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Isola delle Femmine, Palermo, Sicilia, 90040, Italia&quot;,&quot;html&quot;:&quot;90040 Isola delle Femmine, Sicilia Italia&quot;,&quot;bbox&quot;:{&quot;_southWest&quot;:{&quot;lat&quot;:38.1772913,&quot;lng&quot;:13.233932899999999},&quot;_northEast&quot;:{&quot;lat&quot;:38.212525200000002,&quot;lng&quot;:13.259362299999999}},&quot;center&quot;:{&quot;lat&quot;:38.198295000000002,&quot;lng&quot;:13.247344399999999},&quot;properties&quot;:{&quot;place_id&quot;:47659461,&quot;licence&quot;:&quot;Data \\u00a9 OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0. http:\\\/\\\/osm.org\\\/copyright&quot;,&quot;osm_type&quot;:&quot;relation&quot;,&quot;osm_id&quot;:39571,&quot;lat&quot;:&quot;38.1982950&quot;,&quot;lon&quot;:&quot;13.2473444&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;boundary&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;administrative&quot;,&quot;place_rank&quot;:16,&quot;importance&quot;:0.50512134887052729,&quot;addresstype&quot;:&quot;village&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Isola delle Femmine&quot;,&quot;display_name&quot;:&quot;Isola delle Femmine, Palermo, Sicilia, 90040, Italia&quot;,&quot;address&quot;:{&quot;village&quot;:&quot;Isola delle Femmine&quot;,&quot;county&quot;:&quot;Palermo&quot;,&quot;ISO3166-2-lvl6&quot;:&quot;IT-PA&quot;,&quot;state&quot;:&quot;Sicilia&quot;,&quot;ISO3166-2-lvl4&quot;:&quot;IT-82&quot;,&quot;postcode&quot;:&quot;90040&quot;,&quot;country&quot;:&quot;Italia&quot;,&quot;country_code&quot;:&quot;it&quot;,&quot;building&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;road&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;house_number&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;city&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;town&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;hamlet&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;boundingbox&quot;:[38.1772913,38.212525200000002,13.233932899999999,13.259362299999999]}}],&quot;uuid&quot;:&quot;marker_69ce2cb2f26dc&quot;}]\"><\/div>\n"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
