Sea kayaking reigns supreme, as a sport or as a family activity, going leisurely from creek to creek, or a short trip along the beaches. Alternatively, get yourself a diving suit and plunge into the Mediterranean’s silent world with its rich array of colours and inhabitants: seaweed and fish. Various diving clubs offer initiation or theme courses (wrecks, underwater photography, and archaeology) with the opportunity to take an examination. Diving courses in mountain lakes are also possible.
A fine way to break away from the stress of city life, fishing is for those who like the outdoor life and enjoy a challenge. It is better to go fishing in cool weather and according to the seasons. It’s the ideal opportunity for a family picnic when the time comes to take a refreshing break.
Along the Mediterranean coast, there is sea fishing from the water’s edge or in boats. There are plenty of mullet, sea bream, bass and flat fish along the coastline. Some coastal resorts have also developed "Big Game Fishing".
