A tour of Sport and Adventure

The countryside itself can be explored form above by parascending or hang-gliding or on foot through the natural footpaths or across the terrain on mountain bikes. The more adventurous are catered for with the ascent of the Boca del Dragon and the guided survival excursions.

The Municipal Sports' Complex offers, amongst others, basketball, five-a-side football, handball and tennis, whilst the Campo de los Moriscos Golf course is only five minutes away. The Leisure Ports at Motril and the Marina del Este amply cater for all water sports.

Sports' lovers will enjoy competitions such as the Open Tennis Tournament, the Provincial beach Volleyball Championship, beach football tournaments, the 24 hour indoor Soccer Championship, mountain bike races and athletics.

As night falls, a different world appears. You can sit on a terrace beside the sea, drinking to the strains of summer music, or enjoying a typical Mediterranean speciality at one of the restaurants on the promenade, along the cliffs or in the village itself. Throughout the warm, balmy night you can try some "tapas" in one of the bars in the old quarter. Live music, open-air discos and beach bars all combine to create a warm and friendly night ambience.
