Sport & Activities

Watersports
The warm, clear sea is excellent for underwater fishing, diving, snorkelling and swimming. Facilities for water-skiing and windsurfing are also available from beaches or from hotels.

Other
There are numerous tennis courts (often owned by the hotel or attached to apartments), golf courses and riding stables. Spectator sports include jai-alai, the stick game (a sort of fencing with long poles), Canaries wrestling and the garrocha which is especially practised on the island of La Palma.
