Sports activities are always a good option to have fun and enjoy yourself when having holidays. In Málaga, although a great number of sports activities are related to the summer and the sea, you will find that due to the mild climate there is a lot to do throughout the year.
Due to its excellent situation between mountains and the Mediterranean Sea and the fantastic meteorological conditions, Malaga is a natural paradise for practicing sports, as there can be performed a great variety of disciplines in the air, sea or countryside.
Furthermore, the municipality has magnificent installations where have taken place important competitions.
For lovers of golf, the Costa del Sol is a veritable paradise whose mild climate and 39 courses attract enthusiasts from all over the world.
The quality of facilities, along with the climate, atmosphere and hospitality, has transformed the Costa del Sol into the "Costa del Golf" par excellence.
Water, mountain, nature and adventure sports are also an important part of the coast's sporting alternatives, offering the visitor the chance to go climbing, hiking, paragliding, windsurfing, waterskiing, sailing and scuba diving, to name but a few.
Diving: This beautiful sport which allows you to appreciate the most representative species of the Malaga coastline can be practiced mainly around Maro Cerro Gordo, in the town of Almuńecar.
Canoeing: We recommend the El Chorro and the cliffs of Maro, where you can appreciate caves and rock formations. Another good place for this sport is the Sahara reservoir, with calm waters and diverse flora and fauna.
Windsurf and kite surf is possible thanks to the excellent west winds that occur in the area.
Cycling: Malaga offers excellent areas for cycling, from quiet places to steep mountain roads, which will challenge even the more advanced.
Climbing can be practiced in the area of El Chorro which is considered one of the best places to go climbing in the entire Iberian Peninsula. It has an elevation of almost 1000 metres with amazing gaps. The limestone in the gorge is perfect for winter climbing.
Paragliding: Abdalajís Valley west of the Guadalhorce reservoir is perfect for this sport, due to eastern and western winds, in addition to offering a beautiful landscape. |
