Leisure facilities in Guardamar include water-sports, such as sailing, windsurfing, water-skiing, paragliding, and diving, many operating from the Marina de las Dunas. The Guardamar sports centre offers an olympic-sized outdoor swimming pool, a large heated indoor pool, three football grounds, basketball courts, and other areas for athletics, indoor football, tennis and fronton (a sort of mix between tennis and pelota). Five golf courses are located within a 20 Km radius of Guardamar. But perhaps the greatest of Guardamar's leisure attractions is its absolute suitability to walking, cycling and horse-riding. |

 Fiestas and cultural activities fill the year at Guardamar. From the entrance of Menjabollos the giant at Christmas, and the Carnival celebrations in February, to the grand processions of Moros y Cristianos (Moors and Christians) in high summer, along with numerous others throughout the year, there always seems to be a fiesta in Guardamar (information and photographs). |
