Did you know that Portugal is the perfect place for practising some sport? On land, in air or at sea, you'll find everything you need to make the most of your holidays and keep fit. Bring your energetic spirit and the desire to have a bit of fun, we'll offer you the rest!
Unleash your sense of adventure in Porto and the North – walk/cycle along trails flanked by spectacular animal and plant life! In the Centre of Portugal, try out some motocross and downhill tracks or go climbing, rappelling or sliding. If you're looking for bigger thrills, try a bit of hang gliding in Linhares da Beira.
You'll find the finest spots in Europe for surfing, windsurfing and bodyboarding along our immense coastline, or if you prefer sailing, hoist your sails along the coasts of Lisbon, the Algarve and the Azores. In the Alentejo, try some kayaking or canoeing in the huge reservoirs, or go for a balloon ride over the vast plains.
Walk through the "levadas" mini-canals in Madeira - on your own or in a group - and replenish your lungs with fresh air. In the Azores, don't miss the opportunity to dive into the archipelago’s crystal clear waters and do some whale- and dolphin-watching. Enjoy golf? You'll find exceptional conditions in Portugal throughout the year, including the latest modality… rustic golf.
As you can see, Portugal can satisfy your every dream – you just have to pluck up the courage to brave the waves, wind, clouds, and the power of gravity and the earth.. Stop dreaming and start moving. Accept our invitation…come to Portugal! |
