Sports
With one of the finest all-year-round climates in the world, the south coast of Spain is naturally rich in leisure pastimes. If lazing on one of Spain's most beautiful beaches isn't for you, activities such as bowls, fishing, horse riding, quad trekking and a variety of water sports are available. Spain is popular for its range of golf courses to suit all ages and levels.
For those who seek a cooler environment, the slopes of the Sierra Nevada beckon. Sierra Nevada is Europe's southern most ski resort with the Iberian Peninsula's highest summits. Snow covers the mountain for ten months of the year. Designed by European and American specialists, it offers excellent conditions for skiers of all grades, with nearly forty miles of slopes.
If there is a sport you particularly enjoy or you would like to meet people with the same hobby as you, there are a number of clubs and associations for you to join. Whether it is American square dancing, glass painting or scuba diving it is worth looking in local newspapers for adverts or surfing the internet.
