Transparent boats in Plateliai with kids is our discovery of this summer, which we would like to recommend to you very much. It’s a completely unique experience that you can try even with the smallest children. It’s really hard to compare with anything else. Although we have certainly tried many attractions in Lithuania, we keep discovering activities that surprise and delight us. Clear boats are one of them. We enjoyed it so much that we are planning to return to Plateliai this summer.
Transparent boats in Plateliai with kids
Transparent boats in Plateliai with kids are completely safe and can be used by one or two people, or with a baby. The organisers of this activity told us that in all the time that people have been using these boats, no one has ever capsized or fallen out, so it is really safe to go with children. Moreover, everyone wears life jackets.
A unique experience in transparent boats
This activity is gaining popularity in Lithuania, and you can try out transparent boats in different lakes in Lithuania, but we chose Plateliai. Why did we choose Plateliai, you may ask, and why did we travel almost 300 kilometres one way? The water of Lake Plateliai is one of the clearest in Lithuania, and you can also visit islands while boating in Lake Plateliai. The bottom of the lake is very clearly visible near these islands. The first one is the Veršiai island, where you can see interesting vegetation and a variety of fish swimming by. The second island, the historic Castle Island, also offers a glimpse of the piles of a sunken 15th century bridge. At that time, this bridge led from the island to Plateliai itself.
We also sailed along the shore of the lake, so we could see many birds and ducks in the meldew, and we could observe their life up close.
Our advice and recommendations
Transparent boats can be sailed during the day, but also at night, when they glow and make the experience even more unique. In addition, the organisers also give you two lamps that shine 3 to 6 metres down into the water, so the views are breathtaking.
We highly recommend booking in advance, as this is a really popular activity. In addition to the transparent boats, you can also try out transparent paddleboats.
If you are still unsure about this activity, contact the Transparent Boats team, they are wonderful people who will tell you and show you everything. They also help you to get on the boat, get your children on board, and get you in the water to make the experience as pleasant as possible.
You can also rent pedal boats and go for a swim, as the shores of Lake Plateliai are perfect for swimming with children.
We guarantee that everyone will enjoy the lucid boats in Plateliai, children and parents alike.
