On the southern shores of Lake Garda, Desenzano welcomes you with its perfect blend of Italian vibrancy and lakeside serenity. With its lively harbour, elegant piazzas, and golden-hour reflections dancing on the water, it’s no wonder this town has long been a beloved escape.

Once a Roman settlement, Desenzano’s rich history lives on in the impressive Roman Villa, with stunning mosaics that whisper of ancient days. Wander the historic center, shop stylish boutiques, or enjoy a lazy afternoon at the bustling Porto Vecchio.

As day fades, locals and travelers gather along the promenade with gelato in hand and hearts full of dolce vita. 🍦💛

Desenzano isn’t just a destination — it’s a feeling. Sun-kissed, graceful, and timeless.

To all of you other photographers out there; how do you respond when somebody asks you to take a photo of them during nighttime (especially knowing this never happens to you during daytime, when light conditions obviously are a lot better)?

It happened to me on this particular evening at the lighthouse of Desenzano del Garda when a guy asked me if I wanted to take his photo, I politely declined like I usually do as I simply have no interest in photographing people (let alone in the evening with a not overly great in camera flash), and he did not take that very well. Luckily he just walked away, but I was relieved things didn't turn ugly.
