There`s a great free sosta at Germignaga overlooking the lake and short walk to small town. EHU available. Supermarket about 500m. Campercontact 11814. The app says 15 euro but free when I was there in May.
There is a small beach you could launch a paddleboard.

For Lake Maggiore try camping Conca D'Oro. Its on ACSI, lovely site with own beach, would be good for paddle boarding. Close to the beautiful Stressa and the pretty little town of Mergozzo on Lake Mergozzo. We also stopped at Lucerne but found it expensive, We also stopped at a medieval town called Brig. Excellent site on a river overlooking town. We parked close to reception and got an excellent internet connection even managed to stream uk tv. Walked the 10 minute riverside walk into town. Some nice shops and lovely old buildings. Found an Aldi and topped up with provisions.
