Lake Bomba Summer fun for all the family. The lake offers so much, swimming pools, restaurants, bars, cycle paths, sports, archery, horse riding, hiring canoes, boats, trampolines or just lie on a bed and watch the children burn off that energy. It is also a fishing lake and you can swim in it too. All this, in completely relaxing woodland, a happy change from the beach to escape those long hot summer days.
