Follow your Istinto: a summer night of dancing and adventure on Lake Garda

Let’s go party now

After dribbling some rain drops, our evening continued with another visit to Istinto Club (check our previous post about our afternoon in this naked pool garden). We were curious to check it out on the eve of Ferragosto. The weather wasn’t particularly warm and sunny on that day, and this meant that no Italian would dare to spend the afternoon at the poolside. Grey sky and outdoor activities are on separate levels of reality in Italy. Bring this 26°C dry weather – although grey – to a northern destination like Germany, Netherland or Denmark, and you can be quite sure that a few people will still show up. Mediterranean people are blessed by sunny weather, so it’s understandable that nothing less than perfect blue sky and a solid 30°C+ is worth an outdoor presence of any of the descendents of the Romans.

Jokes aside, we decided as well to skip the afternoon at Istinto pool garden and to focus our attention on the evening event. We came pretty early, before 10pm to find the club still very quiet. Our fault, since we are used to the rigorous 8pm start of many other parties we attended. 

Their tasty buffet was already there, as well as the DJ pumping some good beats from a good-quality speaker system.
