⚽ Sport & Active in Spain
For active visitors, the Spanish summer offers more than just the beach. Sailing regattas like Palma's Copa del Rey, open-water swims, coastal running races, cycling events and watersports competitions dot the calendar, while the calm Mar Menor lagoon and the islands are made for getting out on the water.
