If the idea of relaxing on the beach in the sunshine for a week sounds boring to you, then you obviously need something a bit more exciting. Holidays that you can combine with your favourite sports are an ideal solution to make sure your holiday is full of fun and excitement.

Here are some ideas for sporting holidays that you could book:

Watersports in Costa Rica – Costa Rica is a fantastic destination, even if you do just want to relax and take in the scenery. However, due to its large coastal span, there are loads of watersports activities for to participate in. From surfing, to canoeing and jet-skiing, there is a wide range of watersport activities to get involved in. There are also some fantastic trails through rainforests that you can take, and the chance to go on a very thrilling zip-wire!

Go to a football match/tournament – If you prefer to watch sport than actually take part, then how about going to watch one of your favourite teams. Across Europe there are some fantastic teams to go and watch in magnificent stadiums. In the UK, you could go to a Premier League match, maybe catch Manchester United or Chelsea in action. Or head to Spain for Barcelona or Real Madrid, and see some of the top football stars in the world. Even better, you could go to an international tournament and watch a number of teams in action.

Golf – Golf is a hugely popular sporting holiday and there are some amazing courses across the world that you can visit. Head to Scotland to play at some of the best courses in the world, or if you want a warmer holiday where you can actually sunbath, Florida or Spain are both great options for golfers. Golf package holidays are great because you can arrange for your equipment to get stored, have all your meals on the complex, and relax around the pool in between a few rounds of golf. You are very well looked after when you book a golf holiday package deal.

Skiing – If you like to ski, or you’ve always fancied learning to ski, then why not book a skiing holiday? A highly popular destination is in the French Alps, where there are numerous great ski resorts where you can take on all levels of ski runs. Even if you have never skied before, if you book some lessons, you will be up and skiing in no time at all. You could even try some snowboarding instead, before relaxing in the lovely wine bars afterwards.

Have those ideas given you some inspiration? Why give into another boring holiday destination, when the world is full of so many exciting opportunities for fun-loving holidaymakers. Get out and see the world, and have the time of your life, doing what you love the most. Once you have had a sporting holiday, you may never want to go back to the dull beach holidays again.
