In the surrounding area...
Some will like to enjoy the sun on the deckchairs or in the large swimming pool heated all year round with its jacuzzi area and massage jets; others will wander outside to discover the natural pools of Los Abrigos, and others still will be delighted to be so close to the famous El Médano to take kite-surf, wind-surf, wing-surf, surf lessons, etc.
The outdoor activities are so numerous that it is difficult to name them all:
- 🏄 water sports enthusiasts (kite, wing, surf ...) will find in El Médano (5 km) *the* favorite spot for amateurs and professionals alike (we have good addresses to share with you!) ;
