With top-rated local clubs, activities for all ages and skill levels, and the sparkling Mediterranean as your playground, this is a dream destination for watersports lovers.
Thanks to steady breezes, a natural bay, and year-round sunshine, Santa Pola is made for adventure.

For underwater adventurers, diving is also available, including night dives and PADI certification courses. Prefer a different pace? Join a fishing trip or rent a boat without a license and explore at your leisure.
Santa Pola even hosted the Windsurfing World Championship in 2009, sealing its reputation as one of Europe’s best watersports hubs.
