Want to know where to water ski? Check out the water skiing travel guide below. There are many water ski holidays, courses and experiences to help you plan the perfect trip.
Water skiing is a popular sport and recreational activity. It was invented in Lake City, Minnesota in 1922 by Ralph Samuelson. These days it is found all over the world.
Pretty similar to wakeboarding, but on skis, you are towed behind a boat or cable and fly across the water at high speeds. You can waterski on the sea, in rivers, or lakes. Ideally the water should be calm so sheltered bays are popular.
There are various water ski disciplines including slalom, freestyle and big air. Water skiing travel is all about finding the perfect conditions and practicing as much as you can every day.
