Camping Village Punta Navaccia

Set on the shores of Lake Trasimeno amid the green hills of Umbria, Camping Village Punta Navaccia is a large and welcoming lakeside resort that promises a memorable blend of nature, comfort and family fun. Sprawling over approximately 70,000 m² of shaded parkland, this well-established campsite enjoys a stunning waterfront position with a long grassy lakefront, floating platforms, piers and an adjacent sandy public beach — perfect for lazy sun days and refreshing swims right at your doorstep.

Whether you’re pitching a tent, pulling in your campervan or booking one of the many on-site accommodations, Punta Navaccia has something for everyone. The site features spacious, shady pitches with lake views, a variety of mobile homes, Safari Lodge tents, Coco tents and Mini Safari tents, and even glamping options for guests who want extra comfort while staying close to nature.

Families will be delighted by the resort’s extensive facilities: enjoy two swimming pools (one for adults, one for children) plus a jacuzzi, perfect for cooling off after a day by the Trasimeno shore; a mini club and playground for younger guests; and plenty of international entertainment, sports and activities in high season. Evening shows take place in a large covered amphitheatre with maxi-screen, and there’s a full range of sports facilities including tennis, basketball, beach volley, football, table tennis, and an adventure park for kids and teens.

On-site services make life easy: relax with a drink at the bar, pick up essentials in the supermarket, enjoy meals at the restaurant and pizzeria, and stay connected with free Wi-Fi covering the whole campsite. Camper service, shared barbecue areas, free sun umbrellas and deckchairs by the lakefront add extra convenience. Dogs are welcome free of charge, and dedicated spaces have been created for four-legged guests so the whole family can enjoy the outdoors together.

Camping Village Punta Navaccia’s location on Lake Trasimeno Natural Park places you in one of Central Italy’s most scenic regions, straddling the border between Umbria and Tuscany. Just steps from your pitch or accommodation, you can stroll or swim on the lakeside beach, paddle along the shore or explore the water on SUP or canoe at nearby providers (available on request).

The lakeshore trail and gentle countryside paths invite walkers, cyclists and nature lovers to explore the lush surroundings. Historic attractions are surprisingly close: the town of Tuoro sul Trasimeno, with its Roman battle history and tranquil streets, is only minutes away, making it easy to combine beach days with cultural outings.

Beyond the immediate area, a wealth of Italian heritage towns lie within easy day-trip distance. Perugia — with its medieval walls, Renaissance art and lively cafés — is about a 30-minute drive, while Assisi, the birthplace of St. Francis, is within reach for a spiritual and architectural adventure. If you’re keen to explore Tuscany, towns like Arezzo and Cortona can be reached with scenic countryside drives.

For pure lakeside fun, ferries to the islands — especially Isola Maggiore — depart from points near the campsite, offering a charming way to spend a day discovering olive groves, artisan craft shops and tranquil views across the water. In the evenings, local eateries, bars and gelato shops around Tuoro and Castiglione del Lago beckon with regional cuisine and relaxed lakeside atmospheres.

Camping Village Punta Navaccia operates on a generous season (March 14 to November 3), giving you plenty of time to enjoy the warm months at Lake Trasimeno. The lakefront location means many pitches and accommodations are a few steps from the water, and the free use of sun umbrellas and sun loungers makes spending long days outdoors effortless.

If you’re planning on exploring the region, note that the campsite is conveniently situated close to transport links: the train station is approximately 500 m away, and Perugia International Airport is about 40 km from the site, making access easier for international visitors.

Families love Punta Navaccia for its full entertainment programme in summer, including sports tournaments, aquagym, evening shows and kids’ activities — yet the resort also offers quieter areas for those who just want relaxation and nature.

Practical facilities like free Wi-Fi, camper service points, electric bike charging stations and free dog access ensure comfort throughout your stay. Pets are genuinely welcomed at no extra charge, and dedicated dog play areas help them enjoy the outdoors too.

A few local tips: bring sun protection for lakeside days, especially in high summer; check individual opening times for water sports or activity zones (some operate at additional cost); and if you plan to tour cultural sites like Assisi or Perugia, having a car will give you maximum flexibility. With its unique blend of nature, fun and accessibility, Punta Navaccia is a perfect choice for a memorable Italian lakeside holiday.
